Default Frustration

I am having an ignition issue that is driving me nuts. Sometimes the car will start, sometimes not. If I disconnect the ignition switch & put a jumper wire on the switch wires, most of the time it starts but sometimes it won't. I have checked point gap & timing 10 times & still no change. I have original parts (repro) in the distributor. I have gone through 2 new ignition switches & have a new cable to the distributor. Sometimes it starts when I stop pressing the starter button. When I first restored the car it would fire right up, that was 36 years ago. I must be over looking something now. Any ideas? Thanks.
