Does the car get a spark? If not bypass the points and module for a quick test.
1) Disconect the negative terminal on the coil.
2) Find an old spark plug and break off the side electrode to creat a huge gap. Or get a KD test spark plug.
3) Conect the spark plug to the output wire from the coil and ground the plug at a safe location (away from fuel)
4) Put the ignition key to the on position.
5) Verify at least 8 volts are on the positive side of the coil.
6) Take a jumper wire and attach it to the negative terminal on the coil.
7) Strike the other end of the wire quickly to ground in such a way to make and break the circute just like the points would do.

8) No spark (You need a coil) But I would suggest you first try this on a car with points that you know works just to get the hang of it.
