Electrical problem
1963 Cadillac Fleetwood V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

The car has been in storage for several years. I replaced the battery, coil, coil wire, coil condenser, cap, rotor, points, and condenser. I have 12.56V going into the coil. I have same voltage coming out of coil wire but get no spark at plugs.

Do you have spark coming out of the coil if so double check rotor and cap it has to go thru there to get to the plugs. Now if there's no spark at coil recheck the contact point gap.
