So I don't know that I've made any progress yet this weekend.

I went to test fire the car. It will crank but acts like it has no spark.

I checked voltage at the coil in the run position and it doesn't have any voltage there.

I ran a jumper wire from the battery to the hot terminal of the coil and when she turned the key on you could here what sounded like the starter solenoid getting pulled in. I still couldn't get it to fire up.

The only upside is it is pumping fuel from the tank. Although a portion is all over the shop floor now... oh and I do have headlights until the one burned out but no high beam indicator

Super frustrating

Did you happen to check for voltage on the black/white wire on the ballast resistor with the key in ON?

What is the resistance between the engine block and battery negative?

If you run the hot wire to the coil, measure voltage to ground on coil to negative while someone else is cranking the engine. You should see it at 12VDC+ and periodically drop when the ignition system connects it to ground. Also I can't remember, are you using points or an electronic ignition?
