The most anyone can do to my oldies is EMP the ignition system.
I’ve already bought an ignition module for the old Willys with the electronic distributor. Those modules last me about a year and change. I refuse to go back to the misery of points unless there is no other way.
My 16 Tacoma is a stick so I at least knock it out of gear and maybe use the emergency brake to stop.
The spouse’s Camry on the other hand is stuffed with electronics galore.

I have an old 1984 Bronco II that I converted to a Cummins 4bt diesel 25 mpg 5 speed, np200 transfer case, 3.25 gears ford 8.8 and dana 35. Not much gonna stop me, EMP just blows my high dollar stereo :)

I’m with you on the electronic ignition for the Willys (64 CJ6). I have the original but hope I never have to put it back in.
. . . now about that emergency brake . .
If the SHTF, I know which one you’ll be driving
Keep a spare couple of the modules in a grounded simple Faraday.
On that Camry the steering wheel is no more than a rheostat. I worry about those things. What happens if the electric system fails? Nothing then can work, no?
