SOLVED
I hope....

Cleaned (looked fine) ground to engine, and cleaned ground
to Body (actually removed paint under screw head as opposed to
just screw threads for ground.

Put test light in coil plug and it was hot,
plugged it back in and if started up.

I will head the advice on the tri wire suggestion.
There are some jumps and splices in there already before I
bought truck. Will double check

Thanks guys!!
