Starter Problems?!?! 140-160

So I've just finished up putting my 72 142 back together and I go to start and.........NOTHING. Not even a click from the solenoid. The starter is brand new, the lead from the battery is hooked up and there are 12 volts comeing from the ignition switch when in the cranking position. The engine and starter are grounded. I tapped the solenoid (lightly with me trusty fine adjustment tool (hammer), but nothing still. I also ran a lead straight from the battery to where the ignition switch wire gets hooked up, but nothing again. What am I missing and or what should I do. Thanks for your help, hope to be on the road again soon!

Adam
