Answer

Your problem will be in the wiring at the starter, I would start with checking the fusible link in the wiring near the starter.

Accepted Answer

I would trace it from the starter to the junction block on the firewall where it goes into the cab near the brake booster and see if voltage is making it that far. If it is then I would check for voltage at the ignition behind the dash on top of the steering column. I'm talking about the electrical part of the ignition on the lower column that is attached to your key ignition with a rod.
