Dodge Dart Engine Problem

Engine Mechanical problem
1964 Dodge Dart 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 70000 miles

I have a 1964 Dodge Dart with a slant 6 270. I was driving it over the summer and one day it decided not to start. I put a new starter in and that worked at the beginning of the season then like i said it stopped turning on. the engine does turnover though. I wish I could give you more details but that is all I can think of. Thanks.

Do below

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,cap and rotor,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it and keep testing
