The Silence of the 3200

Hello guys
A week ago I put my 3200 in the garage and calmly went on long-awaited vacation.
Today I have suffered a great disappointment, turning the key in the ignition, I was getting ready to enjoy my favorite sound but starter was silent, heard was only the work of the fuel pump. Before that I never had such problems. Maybe someone had similar problems or have any thoughts on the matter.
P.S. I advance to all grateful and sorry for my "beautiful"))) English

Check if your battery is fully charged.
If its fully charged and you hear a relay click but no starter motor, then the motor might be gone.
They are known to fail frequently and unfortunately you need to remove the intake manifold tomget to it.

At least it wasn't on a race track
Mine is suffering the same issues - do check the battery, a failed starter motor not too difficult to replace, but it is a long job as it is buried at the back of the V underneath the air intake manifold
