nope charged it for a day

doesnt mean the battery is sound but never the less....

well the fault must be within the motor, the earth, or the positive lead to the motor.

try bridging between the large power posts on the motor and see if the motor spins. if it does, then its the pre-engage contacts at the rear of the solenoid that arent making.
if it doesnt, then the motor, earth or supply is faulty.

does the interior/dash lamps dim as the starter is requested?

is the gearbox earth intact. Try hitting the starter motor if it works take it off and pour a cap off oil in it and try and coat the inside.
