58 Super 2 door engine turned then nothing

58 Super 2 door with built Chevy 350. It has been starting fine then the day I went to take video to post it for sale I pushed the starter button and it went vroom, vroom, nothing? Hit the button again nothing. The starter wires were a little close and chared in spots from the header so I rewired thinking that was it, did not start. I guess I track electricity from all starter wires to ignition to battery right? She probably hates me for trying to sell her, its happened with another car.

What does "nothing " mean.

Does it crank and not start
Does it not crank at all
Does anything work, lights, radio etc?

To get good help we need good information

I charged the battery a bit and hit the button, and it turned real quick... so I am an idiot. Always looking past the simplest things, haha. Thanks for helping.
