In this pdf, for a later year, with distributor, on p42, it says to set the distributor with the rotor held at full advance. '59 engines aren't the same I know, but the principles - and the distributor - are same/similar. Not sure what books for other years say as haven't looked (and it does take a bit of looking sometimes with these old manuals!): http://archives.jampot.dk/Book/Owners_m ... Manual.pdf
