Default Passive Theft problem

I recently purchased a 94 Mustang street custom with a built 351W motor (retirement hobby). It has run great all spring and today after a drive, I went to start it to put in garage and no ignition? All lights, turn signals, radio etc work. It has an external fuel pump with dash switch and that works as well, until I turn the ignition key and it is then disabled along with no spark or starter. I disconnected the battery for 30 min., and when I hooked it back up, the alarm went off with lights and horns. I have checked all the fuses and everything looks fine.

Should I suspect that its a bad anti-theft module in the trunk?

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Check battery voltage first. It should be over 13 volts. I had a Yukon that acted like that and all it needed was a battery.

It shows 12.7V.....I'll put it on charger overnight, but as I said, all other electronics work as they should. It's seems to be just the starter circuit that's disabled. Thanks
