I have a 1963 ford falcon that stopped on me about 2 minutes after driving it. I drove it the night before for about 2 hours with no problems. Checked the fuel pump- it's getting gas to the carb. Replaced the coil thinking that could be the problem- not it. The engine is turning over like a champ, but won't start. Does anybody have any suggestions about what else to check?

That should have the old point system in it, , how long hass it been since the points and condensor had been replaced? That is if it had not been upgraded. On those cars there is very few things that would keep it from running right, 1. The points 2. Lack of fuel, 3. Timing or bad cam.
