Thank you for all your great suggestions.
Really appreciate it a lot!

I found the electric connection of the starter solenoid that leads to the starter motor is heavily rusted. All other connections are bright and clean.

So I will clean that up first and see what happens. If it still fails, I’ll tap on the starter and see if it will start then. If not I’ll replace the whole thing.

The reason the car sat for a number of years is that I had a major issue after the Supra W58 gearbox conversion I did. It was too big of a project at the time as I had just set up my own company. Finally got around to take the gearbox out last year and fix the issue (clutch was way too heavy). Also took the time to install electric fan and other small fixes.

I will post again in a day or two when I have removed the rust.
Thanks again all. Hope the car back on the road soon as the tulip fields in the Netherlands are in bloom...
