I guess another thing to mention is that I enjoy tinkering with the car. If this was s daily driver, there is no way I would have points in there. But once or twice a year to take half an hour and clean and adjust the points, if it's even necessary, I have no issue with.

I also agree that something else is going on, but at some point it just isn't worth the time and frustration when there is another solution that not only works just as well, but for myself, is more like what these cars were back in the day, and what I did as a teenager when I owned the car.

As Bob said, to each his own.
