if you don't mind me asking, how do you know it has no spark?

Since this car hasn't run in five years, you're going to have to be pretty methodical in bringing it back to life. The smoking and poor running is no surprise given the amount of down time.

So, what is the condition of the fuel - is it 5 years old too? If fuel sat in any passages for those five years it has almost certainly evaporated leaving behind a "gunked" up mess. Have you checked the air filter, fuel filter, battery condition, etc.

I'm sure many on here will be glad to help, but you're going to need to list all the things you've tried, so we can begin to narrow down the possibilities.
