UPDATE!!!! Good news everyone, SHE LIVES!!! 
I had to wait two days just for a spark plug to come in, as you all know i had a burnt out plug. Wow are they ever expensive, 15$ list each, 10$ cost... so I saved myself 5$ ! Boy am I ever glad the old man owns a tranny shop here in town, I save so much money on parts. Anyways back to the story... So I put in my missing plug, pushed it outside (the car sat inside for 3 days) and me and my dad push started it. She started on the first try! So I let her run until she warmed up and the choke kicked off... just to make sure she would stay running, which she did. Did the decarbonization trick, and let me tell you it worked wonders for me. Not only does my car run now but it has much better response, my miss-fire is gone, i have a decent power gain, and my car doesnt sound sick while its running. So while I kept the RPM @ 4000 - 5000 my dad poured about 1.5 Litres of water through the top of the carb. I did not do the oil down the carb trick like most of you said to do. Sorry guys, but hey, my car lives again and I'm extremely happy! Did not do a compression test but I'm sure the compression has to be back up in order for the car to be running, and to start the regular way with just using the starter. But I'll post my compression stats tomorrow. Thank you to everyone for all your help!!!!!!!!!!!!! I very much appreciate it, and if it weren't for you guys, I think I would have just scrapped her
