Vette asks some good questions. Start with the basics.
Fuel. Does the carb squirt fuel when the throttle is pumped? If not, check the flow by disconnecting the fuel line and pumping into a container by cranking the engine. No flow, check the lines, filter and pump.
Ignition. Remove a spark plug that you can lay on a grounded surface and crank the engine. No spark, remove the distributor cap and see if the points are opening. Use a voltmeter and start checking voltages, making sure you have power in and out of the coil and distributor.
If you have fuel and spark, check your plug wires for the proper order. The firing order is 1-5-3-4-2-6. #1 on the cap is about 2 o'clock, the spot closest to the #1 plug. Go clockwise on the firing order. As long as you didn't move the distributor the timing should be okay, but that is next to check.
