I've changed the coil, fuel filter, fuel pump, voltage regulator, battery, alternator, and still having this no start problem with my 1978 Thunderbird. What could be the issue?

Distributor? How old are the plug wires? Have you checked the spark plugs? The thing could be fouling so bad that it just pours out black smoke and won't run
