Default 1990 accord has no power

My 1990 honda accord has no power what so ever I replaced the battery about 3 times already and on the last time I went to go move it and it started up and everything. Then as I was moving the car it just died on me, does anyone know what the problem can be and if it to much to get it fixed how much can i sell the car for.

I would think your alternator too... Your battery isn't getting charged...maybe u can check it at a Autozone or something..don't know if you have it where your at..Over here places like autozone will check your battery and alternator for free..Can you jump start the car? Maybe check some fuses...I had to change the alternator out of my 91 accord..When the car started and you drove it..did it die out right away or it slowly lost power? say...lights go dim..and radio shuts off..?
