Ignition Points Tech Question

OK it looks like it's the points. Lessons learned....
1. Evidently to answer my original question, if the points are worn enough to keep the motor from starting, they might (did in my case) still pass the test of showing on/off voltage at the coil when turning the motor over slowly.
2. Clean the points as directed in this thread. Previously I ran 400-ish sandpaper through them and there was no difference. Today I ran some 1,000 through them, then clean paper, and it was after doing this that the motor fired. The spark is really wimpy and will only arc a very short distance, but I suppose it stands to reason, since clearly the points are nearly shot. Also the test that Trail Beast suggested at 11:57 produced a much better (but still weak) blue spark compared to the tiny yellow spark I had before cleaning the points.
3. The engine still starts and runs without the condenser. I can't speak to how good or bad it runs because I shut it down right-away since I read in another forum that running without the condenser will fry the points quickly.
4. More of an editorial, but this is an example of how sometimes going to the internet for answers can make things more complicated. This is basic mechanics, and everything pointed to the points being the problem, BUT since I can't get points for this vehicle readily (or probably at-all), I wanted to do some more troubleshooting before spending much more time hunting them down. If this were a pre-internet world I would have thought "what else could it be?" and did whatever I had to do to find a set, and I would have been correct. HAVING SAID THAT, I learned a LOT from everyone's ideas including not only troubleshooting tips, but how this stuff all works.

"Going forward" (another over-used phrase on cable news, but not as bad as "at the end of the day") I'm waiting to hear back from an inquiry to Pertronix about if they can set me up with an electronic ignition kit. Also there's 3 or 4 point sets on Ebay that I think I might be able to modify to fit, and I'll be installing a modern condenser if I stay with points.

Again, thanks for everyone's time and help. I will update about what I end-up with whenever that is.
