I spliced into the ign1 wire. The choke didnt do anything though, the unit must be broke or seized up... rebuilding the carb soon anyways so will take care of it then.

New plugs, fresh gas, oil, filter, the pertronix, and a bit of starting fluid and it fired right up. hadnt been run for a few years. Set timing around 10 degrees with no pinging. Timing mark is bouncing around, the engine is probably due for a new timing chain.

None of my gauges working, except ammeter, and fuses are good. Gotta go through all my connections and grounds, and will replace the headlight light switch and ign switch just to be safe.. this car sat outside for a long time.
