Pull the center wire out of the distributor and hold it near a ground while cranking. If it sparks there, then the coil, points and condenser and center wire (from coil to distributor) are good. If no spark, check those items. If you do get spark, then it is possible that the distributor cap has a crack, or carbon trail inside that is grounding your spark from the center post so that no plug gets any fire. Or plug wires or plugs. Worse case solution is to shot gun it and replace cap, rotor, wires, plugs, points and condenser, which is probably a good thing to do every so often anyway. Good luck and post what you find.
