You might do better to post more info. Does it turn over? Does it sound normal turning over? Have you checked for a spark? Have you checked for fuel flow? Have you checked for any fault codes?
Give the guys on here something to work with and they might be able to help.

Just a thought, but don't cars of that era have a safety fuel cut-off that operates automatically in the event of a severe shunt? If your car has one, it will need to be reset before fuel will flow again.

A fault at the cam sensor (hall sender) or one of the crank sensors will kill the spark.

The V6 has the crank sensors same as the 5 pot, the hall sender is at the back of the cam: http://www.12v.org/engine/index.php?section=cl&view=rear

Maybe check the pin in the flywheel if you can't find anything else?
