I know playing problem diagnosis over the Internet is stupid but hear me out and at least see if I'm on the right track
>start car with no issue other day
>try to start today
>turns over as it should
>let off and pump gas
>turn key again
>nothing
>charge battery and check connections still nothing
>lights come on bright so I know battery is up

It has to be the starter right? I don't get a thing from turning the key, no clicks or anything. It's an old as fuck car so can't be computer issues.
>>
Well if your battery isn't dying in a matter of hours, and you don't hear a constant clicking when trying to start the car then it's a ignition or fuel pump issue.
>>
Well fuck. Would fuel pump cause nothing to happen when I turn the key though? I can see that stopping it from starting, but not from not turning over at all.

What make/model?
Is it an 80'-90's ford?
Do any accessories that only work in ignition "on" position function?
>>
Maybe it's the spark plugs?

>>
do any accessories turn on when you turn the key to run?

It's a 1961 Chrysler, most of the accessories are broken anyway so I can't answer that.

>>17177284
Noted and will try. I'd like to mention this happened earlier too, but sorted itself out without me doing anything.

>>17177292
I don't think so, it appears to have almost new plugs and wires, as well as distributor and coil.
>>
>>17177284
do this
and if it's not that more than likely a ignition issue
don't under stand why the fuel pump doesn't work though is it wired the the ignition sorry i'm really bad with wiring and such
>>
>>17177337
oh i didn't see that
have you tried hot wiring it?
maybe it's a simple as the key is broken as you said this happend before
>>
>>17177358
I'm not really sure how to do that but I suppose I'll look up a tutorial if >>17177284 doesn't work
>>
If the battery has charge and your dash lights come on and you dont hear a click or any noise when you try to start its most likely the starter solonoid.
If memory serves, early chrystlers had the solonoid as a separate unit from the starter(my 65 coronet and 67 valiant did on the firewall near the brake master cylinder)

Who are you people with American cars from the 60s?
Are you from Cuba?
>>
>>17177570
You do realize you can just go out and buy an old car if you want one, right?
>>
>>17177448
Washington state. GenX. Ive had probably 15 "classics" over the years
I grew up before the boomers ruined the classic market.
My first car in 86 was a 1970 chevelle SS 454 4spd
I currently have a 66 L72 impala ive had since high school in storage now.
Paid $1250 for it.
Boomers are starting to die off and a lot of these "no lowballers i know what i got" cars are getting passed down.
