Sounds like the control module went out. When they go out it's done. It sits under the internal coil inside the dizzy.

Re: 1969 c10 hei no spark help
I think you can get a module tested at Autozone and if it's bad replace it with a GM Delco
module. Since you have power at the BATT terminal and the coil tests good you may also have a bad pickup in the distributor or the button in the cap might be bad. HEI modules do not like external voltage regulators because they can generate voltage spikes that can fry the modules. The Delco modules are more resistant to spikes and last longer.

Just for your info .
