A bad rotor was exactly what my car's problem was last month, and it was a new 
Lucas rotor! 

After trying everything else, I swapped it with another new Lucas rotor and it 
roared to life.  Now I have to hope that the new one isn't from the same batch 
as the old.

      Since it sounds like you have lost spark completely it is probably not
    distributor cap arcing.  I am sursprised how many said bad rotor, I used to
    drive Lucas ignition cars for my daily drivers, about 12 years or so, all
    sort of iginition components quit on me, the most common being distributor
    cap arcing problems, but never a bad rotor in my hobby or daily driving.
