Leathermang, I think the problem isn't the solenoid because we've tried 3 different starters with the same results. What I think the problem may be is that there is a break in the line somewhere OR it could be the ignition switch. I guess I'll go to the autowrecking yard and pull a few ignition switches and give them a try.

Peter, is the key switch the ignition switch? Or is it the component in between the key tumbler and the ignition switch? I'll post a picture just in case.
