65 Ford Falcon won't turn over :(

I have a 65 Ford Falcon that tries to start, meaning the starter works but then it won't turn over. I just installed a new manifold and carburetor and she won't start. Any ideas why? I have already checked the plugs, fuel and the carburetor is brand new. One thing I will mention when the car stopped running it made a loud wheezing noise. Not sure if it came from the old carburetor or from the engine. I am wondering if it is the timing belt/chain since we have checked everything else. 

Hey Craig
The starter is good as is the battery. I will try your other suggestions though! thanks.

okay when i said it won't turn over i meant it won't start. This is everything we have checked
wires, points
solenoid
coil
starter
alternator
and now we are going to do a compression test on the engine. I hope that isn't it. it will be a job replacing the rings.

Every motor needs Spark/Fuel/compression.
 
Check in that order so you know what system the fault is with.

what do you mean 'a weird rattle coming from the upper side of the hood'? are you sure it's not coming from the bottom end? Get a screw driver and put the handle end to your ear and the other end on the rocker cover,sump and see which end (top,bottom.) has the most noise! if it's the bottom,it's bearing's! if it's the top could be a spring,valve,push rod,just to name a few.does it blow ANY smoke at all? (blue-oil. black-fuel)  good luck mate. 

ok the rattle is coming from the brand new fuel pump I put in. and today tried to drive it and it kept backfiring all the way over the bridge. we had super cold weather here in Fl and I had barely any gas in it. :( had to have her towed home. im thinking the fuel pump went bad maybe. also gonna get some more gas and put it in there. but why was the fuel pump rattling? thinking about taking it out and putting the old one back in cause I don't think anything was wrong with it. now the car won't bloody start. not sure if the fuel line froze up or the gas is not getting to my spanking new carburetor. gonna look at it tomorrow hopefully will not be as bloody cold. it has been in the teens in Fl. record breaking temps!
and purple it is a straight 6 engine, the intake is attached to the engine.
thanks yall

yep I had someone pour some gas right in the carb and she started but then died because it burnt up the fuel. sure it is the fuel pump thinking it has a broken spring on the inside of some sort because of the rattling. taking it out and putting old one back in. will let you know what happens after.

G'day mate,me again,when you say 'attached'? do you mean part of, or bolted?! and what is Fl? I'm guessing your not in aust!!   not to much can go wrong w/ those old donk's, been working on them for over 10+ years now,still have one in the drag kah!(the purple one.) My road kah is a 351 Cleveland!'NO REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACEMENT'. that motor is coming out soon and going in the drag kah! and a 351 windsor is going into the road kah!(actually,it's my house!) yep,I live in my kah!(panelvan) it's a 1968 ford XT falcon.(the white one.)  

G'day mate,no,you don't want to live down here,we cant do s^!t to our kahz here!! if we did half the stuff you blokes can do to kahz over there, we'd get lock't up and the key would get throw'n away!!! Do you mean the hard line from the pump to the carby,? I'v always ran a fuel filter ether side of the fuel pump,and rarely have any problems! did the "good ol U.S. of A make these pano's over there? do you blokes have 2V 6 cyl's over there?we have falcon 6's from 170ci through to 250ci! the fuel pump's on all these motor's are interchangeable.As for flow rate,as far as I know, there's no difference.good luck w/ it! keep me posted. Cheers mate. (P.S. the drag pano is a XW falcon. these model falcon's start from, XR,XT,XW,and XY!all these models came out in G.T. spec.)
