yes 700 1991

When it cranks, does the tach needle bounce? That'll tell you if the rpm sensor is working if it's bosch - maybe the same with regina, I'm not sure.

As for testing the coil, I would say crank the car with the coil to distributor wire off and shorting to somewhere on the engine. IT MIGHT DO DAMAGE so double check this advice - I've never done it myself. I think it would be fine.
If the crank sensor is toast, then the coil shouldn't be putting out spark......
