Cold weather start..no start/no spark? 200 1985

hey thanks Im new here glad to have found this place. I got an 85 244 gl non turbo. I have had problems for the last two winters of it not starting when its real cold. Usually it will start one time good and then die and after that it wont start unless you let it set for a while and do the same process 4-5 times. It also does other cold weather things sometimes it will not even start at all when real cold and it has no spark. Then sometimes (for 3 days straight) it would start right up and go for exactly 2 miles down road then just shut off, It will crank but no spark for but if I wait for 20 min. it starts. I replaced plugs, wires,cap, rotor, distributor and all the goods in it out of 20,000 mi car. and got new battery, and a coil. What can make all these stange problems? If I cant figure it out soon its goint to the junkyard. Please help.
