1983 280ZX not getting spark, somehow

A couple weeks ago the first cold day of the season hit my town and I didn't start my 280ZX for a couple days after. So when I came out to start it a few days later, the car cranked but would never turn over. (The crank was a normal crank, not slow.) I did a spark test and I found out I wasn't getting any spark. I tested the coil and I was getting fairly average resistance and my distributor was turning when I cranked the car. I'm at a loss of what could be wrong. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'm ripping my hair out over here.
