Try the grounding of the battery, a heavy load like the starter needs a good ground. Also the brushes in the starter may be needing attention, that would most likely occur on a higher mileage car. You would be amazed at the crap inside an old starter motor, all those worn and burnt brush remains do not travel too far.
