GRRR! A friend came over today and helped me pull the starter, we got it tested and it tested good. One small part of info I forgot is that when I got the car, a spare ignition switch with keys was in a bag in the trunk. Something seems fishy with that, and as we pulled the igniton housing we saw some of the wires under had been cut and crimped. Whatever the case being, we are out of ideas so if anyone wants to help me figure this out please let me know! I am desperate! Thanks

Sorry I left this hanging, i was emabressed to post my solution. So the clutch pedal pushes on the clutch safety switch, which has this rubber grommet that pushes the button. My rubber button broke and fell off, so thats why the car would not start cause the clutch wasnt being pushed in.

Good luck, and im quite sure this is no one elese problem but it wont hurt to look at the clutch safety switch!
