I have a 1964 Allis Chalmers D10, was running about 3 months ago and running strong my dad ran it one afternoon then parked it. The next day i walked outside to try to go cut the fields and it would not start. Took the starter off and it was shot had the starter replaced and the solenoid its turning over just not firing. I have spark to the starter and the positive and negative sides of the coil even the Distributor but not getting any fire from the plugs. checked the points they are clean the plug wires are new and the rotor for the distributor is also new and the cap. What else can i check and what could be my problem.

The condenser and the plugs themselves are about the only thing left. When you cleaned the points did you check the gap? If the point gap is good I would change the condenser.
