86 T/A won't start!!!!!

I'm hopeing someone out there is up late and can help asap. I have a 86 T/A 5.0 carb. auto that had been stripped when I got it. No interior,carb,battery,dash and other stuff. So I've been starting to bring it back to life, but can't seen to get it started. When I turn the key I will get the accessories , but when I turn it once more to start I get nothing at all, not even a click from the starter. I have a new battery,starter and ignition switch in it and still nothing! I have checked all the wireing and the fuses under the dash and under hood and can't seem to find anything missing or bad. I though I new these cars in and out , but this has me stumped and I don't want it to start nickle and dimeing me to death. Can anybody help me out with this?
Thanks
AP
I also have some 3rd. Gen. parts for sale on ebay if anyone is interested.

Sounds like the purple wire on the side of the solenoid came off, or has a problem. When you put a new starter in it, it came with a new solenoid, right?
