See if the OIL/GEN lights come on.
You can jumper the starter like this:
Check that the Red wire push-on is tight on the starter solenoid.
It could be the seat belt Interlock ('74 cars). Look on my web site:
If you trace it to the Ign sw, post back .
Small wire at the back of the starter Connector corroded.
Do the warning lights dim when you turn the key to the start position? If they do, then the small wire is ok. Possibly low voltage, or corroded solenoid. (The little cylinder shaped thingy on the side of the starter)

Try to see if hot wiring it gets a spark! If so, your ignition switch is bad, common problem.
