Unhappy 1979 Esprit won't start!

Hello All:

I have a 1979 Esprit that just recently decided to quit starting. The battery is charged and all power to the fuse block is non-existant. There is nothing, nada, nill to any of the accessories. I was wondering if it might be one of the fusable links? Maybe the one on the starter? Can anyone help with ideas....

Check the cables, fuses, and starter. I'm betting your problem lies in there.
