the rotor resistance is ~5000. i could see no visible cracks anywhere. 
and the center post thing in the cap looked and moved good too.

points are new, points plate ground wire tested good. how would i know 
if the condenser is good or not?

i also forgot to mention that the car has sat for about 3- 4 months, and 
ran great when parked, i meant to go run it once in a while, but never did.
