Spend small money on some tools and sort it out yourself, it isn't rocket science by a long chalk.
Why do you think it's running weak? Look for a loose carb or manifold, maybe the vacuum advance pipe is leaking?
My guess is that nothing has been done to the car and the points need resetting, easy enough and cheap as chips
