The ignition tumbler could be crap or the rod to the start boxcame off.

make sure the wires connected to the starter are on tight, and if its check the battery cables for corrosion. If that stuff checks out ok, and you still aren't getting any action out of the starter, then pull the starter, and return it for a new one. Ive have one starter that was bad as soon as I got it, out of the box.

check the starter solenoid where it screws to the fire wall, if it gets corroded there, it will affect your starting. also, try and short across the starter and see if it cranks, if it does, the problem is up stream
