I know this thread is a couple of years old but my curiosity got the best of me. The June 1971 issue is the first time the plug wires were advertised in Hot Rod. Accel first appeared in the February or March 1971 issue advertising a distributor but there were no mentions of the plug wires or the coils.
(This is perfect for me because apart from the distributor itself, which is a breakerless (51100E) I'm trying for 1972 at the latest on my car, at least externally)
