Slant Six Points Ignition Trouble

Quick update for everyone, I got the car to start today! there is a video on my Insagram (Rakers_SS). The points are still in it, but a new set. I had an extra points distributor that was freshly rebuilt, swapped that in and she fired up. Next is fuel system and throttle linkage. Previous owner installed a Holley carb and didn't have the bracket for the accelerator cable anymore.

Good that you got it. Just got through replacing one coil in a 57 Evinrude has not been run in over 20 years. Checked the points for resistance, checked the "condensers" and replaced one coil. I have a timing tool which not only sets timing but point gap as well. Cleaned the carb and STARTED IT UP!!
