Some of you guys make it sound as if it's impossible to actually drive a vehicle if you are "unlucky" enough to have brearker points. Maybe I should remind a few of you that this country --and hell the rest of the world--went zillions of miles on breaker equipped ignition systems. At 72, having first started driving around 1965, I simply don't remember "very many times" that a set of points left me helpless on the side of the road.
I don't necessarily mean to recommend that you KEEP them if you keep the car, just that IT ACTUALLY IS POSSIBLE to run and drive "points" system for awhile.
