Slowly the car is starting to get to me. I (for a moment) questioned
whether or not it was right for me to buy the car.

ANYWAY -

I replaced the coil, distributor, and ignition - installed a Luminition.
Still no dice. I get 12v on either side of the coil (both old and new
ones). Ignition wire is not sending spark, and when I connected a test lamp
to the + side of the Luminition, I got nothing. I am at my wits end, and
will probably have to go through therapy! Any ideas as to why this bloody
thing won't go?

Answers to questions you may ask:

Yes, it cranks.
Yes, the battery is at full charge.
Yes, fuel pump works.

This is a 78B, btw..

Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race.
On a saling ship to nowhere, leaving anyplace
If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace.
