[Healeys] No start condition

Not likely to be the actual cable it would have been a connection on either 
end. I would start with a battery switch.

Using a test light connect to the battery feed either positive or negeative 
depending on which polarity you have. Then work your way away from the 
battery one connection at a time until you loose power.

Post to post
Post to Terminal
Post to Ground Cable
Post to battery cut off
Post to other side of cut off
Post to chassis

Eventually you will not have a connection

My bet is the battery switch

While you can certainly make your own, as I recall  British Car Specialists 
sells a proper length cable with connectors already soldered onto the cable.
