5. I have put a new condenser in
6. Yes, the plugs are wet
7. I tried some starting fluid, and got a small "humph" out of the engine, but still did not start

are the plugs new?and are they sparking
hold throttle wide open gave it just a little bit of advance start cranking for about 10-15 seconds if no pop you better go back over everything one more time
i had something like this once was pulling my hair that i don't have out finally found out the points were not opening far enough set them back to .020 and its been running fine ever sense but it was not a new motor
wish i could be there!
i enjoy trying to figure this kind of stuff out
