It starts fine, but it has no turn/flashers, wipers/washer, power seats or windows or sunroof, no gauges, no radio or locks, but it runs great? I replaced all fuses no better? I see no loose wires at the starter or anywhere. Please help?

This sounds like you have an ignition switch that is bad. But to be sure here is a guide to help you test for power, remove the ignition switch and test the PK/RED, PK/GRN and PK/YL wires when the ignition switch is on, here are the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
