Check all your battery connections, especially the connection at the firewall
where the wiring comes out from the rear. Do not just check it, but take the
wire off, clean both the area where the wiring connects and clean and sand the
terminal and the lug on the wire. You can build up a high resistance there and
when you hit the starter switch it will literally create a disconnecting of
the wire against the terminal. You can usually tell if this is the problem if
you have all power to the headlights etc. with the key turned on, before you
start it. When you hit the starter you will usually hear a click and then you
lose all power to headlights etc. Ask me how I know.
