My 1965 Oldsmobile 442 had points, my brothers 1967 had electronic ignition. So to answer your question, look for vehicles at least 50 years old.
Not stock he didn't! I had a 1970 and from 1962-1970 they all ran the same distributor and they all ran points and condenser not HEI or any other from of pointless distributor.
think I'm wrong? Look up a tune up kit for a 1967 Old's 442 455 V8, it uses points and condenser.
GM ran points and condenser all the way up tell 1984? They did start putting the HEI coil on top of cap sometime around 1973? That would knock you on your butt if you got hit by it lol. But that system still used points and condenser and had the little metal window to adjust the dwell angle of the points. It was 30* if I remember correctly.
