Mech/vacuum advance dizzy for B21? 200

Hey,

at some point after the next smog check, before I retire my '82 240 wagon and yank the drivetrain and put it into a 1923 model T (bucket! yeah, I'm crazy...) I wanna fab a new intake for some dellorto carbs, and run a different ignition... a really simple ignition, is there an "oldschool" style mechanical and vacuum advance distributor I can get for my B21 engine? Like off an older car? The stock one has no provision for advance, looks to be all handled by the black box... Points or reluctor, makes no difference to me... points-style can be tricked out with a Pertronix module. Reluctor can be used with a GM HEI module...

Thanks for entertaining my whacked out scenario...
