356 no start

I anxiously started my day yesterday with high hopes of getting our 59 sunroof coupe out of storage and on the road for the summer. Naturally the battery needed a charge, but I found I needed a new one. A small roadblock, but not a huge deal, until I am misdirected by an auto parts store and spend three hours locating a battery that I could of had in 20 minutes. I finally get the battery in and the car turns over, but doesn't fire...


Great.....

I determined that it is fuel related, but with limited mechanical capabilities I could not diagnose the exact problem. There is fuel in the line and fuel filter, but it does not seem that gas is making it through the t in the line and to the carbs. No gas is coming out of the carbs. Any advice?
