I had a similar issue with my '32 V8 5W. After checking all the connections and not finding any issues, I checked for continuity at the battery terminal clamp and the battery cable to that clamp and found none. I removed the terminal clamp on that battery cable and cleaned good and re-installed it. Started right up! If you have factory installed clamps...probably not the problem. I had shortened my battery cable at one time and installed the clamp myself. Good luck!
