Since you've removed the electronic ignition conversion and gone back to points, ask him if you need to re-install a ballast resistor in the coil circuit. They were originally put in starting in '56 along with the voltage change to 12v. They keep the 'running' voltage to the coil slightly lower and help the points last longer but it's bypassed during starter cranking.
