sounds like the carb could stand a good rebuild.
besides, it sounds as if the float is stuck and keeping the car bowl from getting it's supply of fuel, or the venturi is blocked.
I would first see if your actualy getting fuel to the carb, just pull the line off, set the end of the line in a bowl or cup and put the ignition to run but dont start. if you have fuel it's the carb, if not, the fuel line is clogged.
I would still rebuild the carb anyway
