Check for loose connection going to the starter solenoid & starter motor. Good luck on the repairs. keep me posted.

Sometimes there is an inline fusible link that may have burned or is getting a bad connection. Check that and see what you have. Bypass the wire to the starter with a new one and if it cranks, you have a break in that wire.
