Default help wont start

backed my car out of the garage today and then it stalled out and when i went to start it back up nothing happened it seems like its not getting juice but the battery is fine and so is the solenoid i'm thinking it has to be something with the ignition switch because the fuel pump doesn't even come on

Are all your dash lights coming on? If so I would not think it would be the ignition switch. I would check to make sure the fuel cut off did not get popped. It happened to me once on an "87" GT I had. No one could tell me why it happened. It is only supposed to pop out if you are in a rear end accident. If that is still engaged then there could be a problem with the fuel pump. That is where I would start.

Since nothing is coming on it sound like electrical problem. Maybe someone on here with more electrical experience can chime in and give you a hand. Check the easy stuff first, i.e. fuses.
