Problem Solved! - What was the Problem??

In search of some electrical experts out there... I was doing some work on my neighbors 82' SC and it had this one problem where it would not start on accasion. It was clearly electrical since not even the starter motor would activate. Like a dead battery. Then later, it would start as if nothing was wrong. My neighbor wanted a lot of things done so got all the parts including new ignition switch (electrical side that the wires plug into) and a new "High Torque" starter motor. I replaced these two parts and problem is solved. Question is: Could it have been the starter sylinoid on the starter motor or the ignition switch? Or, is there a way to test either of these parts?
Thanks for any ideas.
