I have rebuilt carb, new plugs, points, wires, and the car still will not run. Stumbles and misfires when cold. Will not idle without pumping throttle-- no revs. Warms eventually and runs smoother, but lacks power.

Welcome to AF
Bad coils often seem to work fine when cold but fail when they warm up. In your case, its more likely your ignition or valve timing is off.
