I don't have wiring diagram for that year.
I don't mind talking to you.
The positive side of the coil gets voltage from ignition switch, the negative side of the coil goes to distributor and ignition points on a points type system.
Some makes and models, when cranking, everything gets full battery voltage. When it starts and you release the key it springs back to the run position. In the run position, voltage to the coil may go through resistor block or resistor wire, the purpose is so the points on a points ignition doesn't have to deal with full battery voltage all the time. Helps the points last longer.
Just my opinion.
i would expect the problem to lie in the ignition switch/starter motor circuit , the 40 min drive is irrelevent as there must be a short or overheated wire somewhere, check the wire's to and from starter for tightness,corrosion ,wear ,melting etc , also check the battery wire's for the same and the ignition switch
not enough info on type of heater you have.
if it is a standard furnace with induced draft motor. the pressure switch must be satisfied before the igniter will get voltage to burn bright and light the gas in the burner.
If you can not find the problem is, maybe you can wire directly from your fuse box 12v to your radio hot wire, and use your radio switch turn on and off, omit the ignation switch.
