Re: My 1956 Chevy Truck won't start
You need 3 things to make it run, compression, fuel and ignition. Since it didn't pop off with starting fluid, I would start with the ignition system. Pull the coil wire from the distributor cap and place it in close proximity to a ground. Have someone crank it over and see what you have for spark. If it has a good hot spark then check the cap, rotor and plugs. If no spark check for voltage at the coil + terminal while cranking. If no or low voltage is present while cranking you have a wiring issue. If voltage is present, I would suspect points and condenser or coil. You can bench check the coil with an Ohm meter, there are videos on you tube
