Ignition / starting problems...HELP!!!
Okay, started having trouble with the vette not wanting to turn over. Had gotten some tips on what the problem might be - for instance, the ingnition switch slipping not letting the rod properly engaging the switch. Anyway, so this is everything I have replaced/done...
Replaced ignition ket tumbler
Replacd ignition switch
Battery has full charge
Replaced solenoid on started
Had starter tested to ensure it works properly (it does).
Tried starting in Park and in Neutral (nothing)
Turn the key over...nothing. Lights dim a bit so there is a power draw (?) but starter will not engage.
Any thoughts or solutions - PLEASE HELP! Need to get this car running so I can sell. Going through a divorce and need to liquidate

Will it start if you jump it? Also, remove and clean the ground cables (very important). The battery to frame cable under the battery compartment and also the frame to engine block cable (should be on the right side by the engine mount).
