NY S4 n/a crank but no start

last year one day I went to drive my car and it just wouldn't start. its an 86 GXL (s4 n/a original motor, stock (besides an air filter if that counts). Th.ought I just flooded it but standard unflooding methods didn't work. long story short It got cold out and sat all winter

Decided to try and finally fix it and started with the standard revive from storage procedure. I hand cranked it to make sure nothing was seized and there is compression in all chambers. so far in trouble shooting:

-checked for blown seal/compression
-I replaced the sparkplugs/wires
-checked the coils for spark.
-all engine bay fuses do not appear to be blown

at this point i'm thinking its not getting fuel. before i start troubleshooting the fuel system, Is there anything obvious I'm forgetting? and what are some other possible issues missing?
