E-250 won't start

My van died in my driveway a couple weeks ago, still trying to figure out why. it will sometimes get spark and sometimes not, very intermitant. I replaced the ignition switch checked the starter, checked all the plug wires and such. When it first would't start I pulled the distributor out to check the drive pin because I had just replaced the pin a month ago and it seemed like the same symptom. But the pin was fine. rotor turns.gets fuel. sometimes the starter or maybe the solenoid will make noise like its stuck. But when i do get the starter to actually turn there is no spark. I cannot put much money into this because a tree just fell on it a couple days ago and the van is crushed right in half. But I have to be able to move it because it is stuck ontop my driveway with 7 cars stuck below it. Sorry long post too many questions. Thanks

if it's so badly damaged why don't you just get a truck to pull it out of there? there really is no point to repair it if it's badly damaged unless you still want to keep it

to get it started have you checked the coil?
