A properly set up points and condenser ignition will work fine for many thousands of miles before requiring any adjustment or servicing. Especially with the limited number of miles most of us drive our Packards.

I remember reading an article many, many years ago about the then NASCAR racers. The person interviewed said they did extensive modifications to the inside of the engine, carburation, and exhaust; but ran with the stock ignition systems (with modified advance curves). He said the stock ignition system provided more than sufficient spark for the modified engines, and were dependable.
