You have a hot wire cominng from the battery to the on/off switch and from there to the distributor. If you have power to the switch, then the switch is bad.
 
In electrical problems, always, always start at the battery, intermittent start problem, start at the battery, make sure the posts and clamps are clean and tight, should not be able to wiggle the clamps. If there is a replacement battery clamp with the cable clamped in, triple check it and clean it thoroughly.
 
Do this and it will in turn tell you which way to go to fix your problem. Run a hot wire from the battery to the IGNITION side of the coil and try to start it. If it starts then you know your problem is from the coil back to the battery. If it does not start then your problem is in the distributor and it could be as simple as dirty points that need cleaned and or replaced
