I broke down in my 68 once, it was reving really high. Turned out to be the points were bad. After that I always kept a spare points in the glove box, with a screw driver. I'm glad you got it going.

Used parts are never perfect but they are better quality the repop stuff. Now NOS parts can be some big $$$.
