If battery full and starter tested OK jumping starter did not crank the engine
check wire from battery to starter and check for a good ground

that old and that many miles theres a chance your ignition swich could be bad. not sure how to test it though have you tried starting it by jumping the starter to tell if the solinoid is bad
