Excellent points on all counts.
Yes, you are correct, the points switch on and off 12v to the primary of the ignition coil. You may have had a high resistance short between the primary and secondary windings in the coil that caused the points and condenser to fail rapidly. As I recall that was not uncommon.
You may optionally give an explanation for why this post was reported, which will be sent to the moderators along with the report. This can help the moderator to understand why you reported the post.
