before you spend any money on wires and what not, take the plugs out, but leave them attached to the wires, set them ;on the valve cover and turn the car over. if the plugs look bad go ahead and get new ones. if there is no spark check the points on your dizzy cap, sand them clean if needed. put some good fuel in it, spray some carb cleaner in the tb (take intake off) if there is spark, carb cleaner should get it to kick over. but also check the stuff mentioned by others

ok, I will try all those and the guy said he didn't hear the fuel pump kick on when he tried to start the car so he said that might be out. I think it could be the fuse to the fuel pump too so I am going to check that too. Thanks alot for the help anymore ideas will help too.
