I strongly agree we should buy a pre-1974 vehicle that does not have electronic ignition so is NOT subject to external disabling via electromagnetic pulse. Don’t worry about it being a restored “show” car. Something that starts, runs and drives reliably is fine.
Smart people need such a vehicle using the old system: spark plugs, points, condenser, rotor.
Even an old farm tractor with a hand crank and magneto could provide you with transportation.
Understand your premise, but you better also have fuel stockpiled as none of the pumps will work, right?

Lol. With steel wheels. No flats to worry about. Or spike strips, lol.
