However, when I turn the key nothing happens. No crank, no start. Rowing through the gears and removing/replacing the key gets it started but sometimes it takes a little while. I have replaced the battery, clutch safety switch and the ignition switch but the problem remains. There are no other electrical problems, just the no crank, no start. I would be grateful for any advice anyone has. I'm not sure where to go next (except a shop). Thank you!

First: I would change out the starter relay. They are not expensive and easy to change out. It is in one of the relay panels in the trunk.
Second: In the engine bay next to the power steering reservoir is a small black plastic box. inside is a connection for a main power ground point. Make sure it is clean and tight.
Third: Check the connections at the starter and make sure they are clean and tight.
Do those three things then let us know how you go.
