Start simple first. Check spark on spark plug wire, if spark then check for gas at carb. If no spark then check for spark at coil wire. If spark there check rotor, if no spark then check for power on one side of coil and pulsing grd on other side. If no pulse then check points and switch. Those basic steps will tell you whats wrong. On another note, incorrectly gapped plugs can cause hard starting and poor running but would not normally cause no fire at all. Methinks you must have had a drivability issue to begin with so you replaced the plugs??? If you can't figure it out, most any "old garage mechanic" can look at it. Ask around, someone will know of an "old guy" who can fix it for you. Find an old grubby car repair shop to start asking at. Forget any dealership or too nice of a place. They just will have the "technicians" there, and thats NOT what you need. By the way, you heard what the man said when his horse died? "Never done that before"!
