Why there is current in spark plug?
In and of itself, there is no current in a spark plug.

The primary current for the procedure to take place is supplied by the alternator when the engine is running, or by the battery when the engine is being started.

What would make a 1968 mustang have a no start?
You could be out of gas or not getting fuel to the engine, or you could have an ignition problem. To check for spark to the spark plugs - remove one of the wires from one of the spark plugs, then put a large paperclip in the wire and hold it just above the engine where you can see the spark jump (I would hold the plug wire with a pair of rubber coated pliers), crank over the engine - if you do not get ny spark then you have an ignition problem. Check the ignition points under the distributor cap, they may need to be set to the proper gap.
