It is not uncommon in period correct looking builds to use a point type distributor to trigger an MSD. The points will last forever (until the spring gives up) as the current is next to nothing. The only down side is that the same spring will be your rev limiter due to point float. I have had point distributors on my distributor machine at over 10K distributor RPM with fairly stable signal.
