spark, but not in the right places

[rusted]

Car has been setting for about 6 years. Grandson and I have been working on it and now trying to start it. If I open and close the points with my finger, spark every time. When I turn the key on and crank it with the starter, it sparks once and that is all. No spark when we hold the coil wire near a head bolt. Will a coil or condenser go bad from setting?
