I would suspect the battery cable connections. I would remove them from the battery and clean them up and re-attach them snugly. If your cables attach to the posts on top of the battery, you can get a special wire brush to clean the posts and the cable connections. You should see shiny lead on the surface when they are clean.
And don't forget the other end of the cables. The ground (black) one is simple. It probably bolts to the engine.
The connection of the wires to the battery can fool you. They can seem good to the casual observer when they aren't good. When you start the engine 100 or more amps goes through these connections. This will do strange things to the surfaces of the lead unless the resistance is very low.
