Sounds like a fuel issue. Spray some carb choke cleaner to see if it gets a reaction then. Worst case scenario as far a fuel delivery without catastrophic failure, would be a bad fuel pump.

Additionally, if it is a cold start issue, it can sometime be the choke plate not opening as much as it should or getting stuck.

Clean your distributor cap and rotor while you're at it. Use WD-40 and a paper towel, clean the points up real nice. If it's cracked replace it. Dry it up nice, slap er back in.
I had this problem 2 days ago. Car wouldn't start one day, and checked for spark, but none after the distributor. Checked the cap and it was full of crap. Works like new now. Hope this helps. Good luck!
