It depends which distributor and ignition system it has to which diagram it needs. Your best bet is to get an old Sierra Haynes manual.

if it is points ignition all you need to do is run a live wire to the +ve terminal of the coil and connect the -ve terminal to the distributor, if it is getting fuel it will fire.
