UPDATE THE CAR IS ALIVE!!!!! UPDATE THE CAR IS ALIVE!!!!!

Ok heres the story....another good story..Oh well here goes
80 model 7

The wife drove the car to a friends car sat couple of hours(I KNOW ,I KNOW ,I SHOULDNT HAVE LET HER DRIVE IT!!!

.Then she cranked it to go home it ran a few seconds fine then when she tried to pull out on the hwy it goes dead now starter wont turn and when I go to pull start it the lights go out on the dash like it cranked so its getting juice from the altenator i think and nothing happens wont pull start

Things I've done....
1 checked all the fuses none blown...but hazzards dont work?
2 checked to see if getting juice to coils, test light confirms it with key on.
3 pulled it to start it for several miles just to make sure she didnt flood it out it should have cranked.
4 with key on all the lights on cluster light up as usual

any suggestions will help as this is our only form of transportation right now
