1 of the confusing parts of identifying the actual year model is that cars manufactured after a certain part of year, usually starting around August, are considered the next year's model. So in your example of an October of 1971 164, it would be considered a 1972 which would have been fuel injected for the US market, where a pre-August 1971 164 would have carburetors.

A VIN would help to determine what parts are needed.

I'm pretty sure I have the cap, rotor, points, condenser and wire set in NOS Bosch.

New Bosch spark plugs are available, but they look different and I'm pretty sure they are now made in a different country.
