Check for voltage feed to the ignition switch, red wires, see if they are hot, use a testlight. They should be hot all the time. If not, check fusible links, my info says links come from starter solenoid, bat terminal. Use a testlight check for voltage to the links and from the links. My wiring info for your model year isn't that great.
