No start no crank

First place I look is to make sure you have a good ground from the battery to the engine block. Check for clean battery cable connections. Fords are nice since you can usually bypass the ignition switch by jumping the starter solenoid. You haven't mentioned your battery condition, older batteries can drop voltage immediately when asked to spin the starter. A voltmeter can be very helpful.
