I solved the condenser problem by using a high quality Model A condenser from Brattons. I elongated the hole in the tab and added a pig tail. It went right in (see photo). I bought several sets of NOS points a few years ago and haven't checked their availability recently. If I was looking for points (or other Model B parts) I would start with Renner's Corner, (734) 428-8424.
