See if the wire has fallen off the 50 terminal on the starter solenoid.
I've had that happen in my present van and a '71 Fiat 128.  If not, try
jumping that 50 terminal to alternator B+.  If it cranks then your next
suspect is ignition switch 50 terminal or the neutral/park interlock switch
if it's an automatic.
