Are you trying to start it with jumper cables from the battery to the car?
I had fresh 1 year old battery, but running good heavy duty jumpers from the
battery on the bench to back of the starter and to the engine block as a
ground yielded results much like yours.  Moved the battery over to the car
with good cables securely bolted in place and it starts like a champ.

One of many possibilities,
Bill
