Not enough info here ... what engine is in the car. If it's a v8 it involves removal of the water pump. if that is the case I recommend replacing the distributor as a unit, as there are seals that fail and cause drivability issues, as well as no start problems.

Not very for a mechanic. If you want to do it yourself get a shop manual. Make sure the negative battery terminal is completely disconnected. It just involves removing the air cleaner, distributor cap, and distributor hold down bolt (pretty sure is a 9/16. Also, are you sure you want to change the distributor?
