lets eliminate stuff.....jump the solenoid and see if the car will crank....if it does then you know the starter/solenoid works.
if not.....there is your problem
if it does crank then measure voltage at the power wires coming into the solenoid....if you have no voltage there then that is where your problem is....there are fusible links in the wiring harness that goes to the starter/solenoid i bet that is where your problem is.
