Try over riding the starter relay on the fender ,it has one there right?. dont go to a mechanic yet. the engine aint seized. if it doesnt have this relay then i would get the alternator tested. if you want to test it yourself it can be costly for the right equip. autozone usually tests for free. i dont know were you live so if theres not an autozone. let me know if you cant get it tested.
it seems like you have a loose connection somwere the more i think about it. i would double check your elect connection at the starter, alternator, relay.(i dont know if you checked the relay) starter relay on the passenger side inner fender. It should be either a 3 wire or 4 wire relay. If you do have a relay on the fender, cross the 2 large terminals, if the starter engages then you need to replace that relay
I have a question about the reconditioned battery you bought. I'm thinking about doing the same thing to save a few bucks, but now I am getting conflicting info. Notwithstanding your long drawn out issue, would you recommend a reconditioned battery? A friend of a friend told me reconditioned batteries are as good as new batteries at half the cost. I googled it to find out where I can buy one, and that's when I found all this conflicting info. I am leaning towards buying reconditioned, but it has to be reliable, especially now that winter is on the way. I found many programs to recondition batteries myself, and I am interested in that too. I think I can even do it as a side business. If you bought a reconditioned battery then other people are doing too. Do you, or anyone reading this know anything about it? I would love an opinion on this battery reconditioning thing. That is just a review https://batteryreconditioningkit.com), but I see it everywhere. I am asking two things: Is it worth getting a reconditioned battery, and if so, is it worth doing as a side business for others?
