I looks to be a mechanical one to me, the electronic ones have a connector going into the front.

that has been replaced it's not factory.I think if the lid does not come off to adjust the contacts then it should be electronic.

looks like an aftermarket model, not original to a dodge. and i have seen that style with electronic parts inside. almost looks like a ford motorcraft unit.

My guess is it's an aftermarket replacement for the mechanical one.
It will work with the mechanical wiring and circuits.
It's probably electronic inside, but is not a replacement Electronic one.

well this picture is better,
from what i see the ground is wired to the firwall, so if i look to your vr Dix, it should be electronic...i guess????...corrosive
