1968 straight six questions?

I have recently purchased a 1968 f100. I am working on trying to get the motor running. I put a hot batery on it and turned the key, nothing happend so I pulled the starter, took the batery and jumped the starter. sure enough the starter was bad, so I bought a starter and a sulanoid. I put them on and bummped the key, the motor turned over. so I took the fuel line off the carbuerator(bad gas), took breather off and squirted gas down the carbuerator and sprayed starter fluid in it, I turned the motor overand couldent get it to fire. I pulled a spark plug and put a new one in the boot, grounded it and turned the motor over, and I got no spark.so I thought it might be the coil, I took the coil off my 1963 f100 which runs and put it on the 68, no change so I took the ditributer cap off and cleaned the points and everything that was corroded, i put the cap back on and tryed to get a spark from a plug and still nothing. it had a new condenser put on it before it was parked 5 years ago by its previos owner. at this point any advise on how to get it to fire is helpfull.
(please excuse any incorect terminallagy or spelling, im only 15 and i am tired right now )  

i had that exact same problem with a jeep i drove for a while. no spark, even after replacing the distributor, coil, and the ICM. i eventually just got an HEI distributor that was made for the I6 i had, and problem solved. it might cost a bit more, but it beats guessing and chasing down numerous ignition components.  

i have to agree with batafishh22
when you cleaned the points did you set/reset the gap/dwell
if this isn't part of the problem, get away from the points ignition
you can spend all the time and money to check and repalce all the pieces of the points system to get it running and have a finicky, high maintenance, out-dated ignition system that will keep you busy or you can spend about the same money or less and have a more modern, easy to use/maintain system that will be much more reliable...unless you're going for a concours restoration, the modern ignition is the way to go  

thanks batafish22,and 68scott385 ill go modern with it all and see what happens.
