Welcome to AF!
How are the battery cables and connections to the battery? Are they clean and free of corrosion? How is the condition of the battery cables, especially where the battery connections are, ( is the condition of the outer insulating sheath free of cuts or damage, etc. )? I would start looking at the simplest/ least expensive item to look at/fix which would be to check for corrosion either on the battery terminals or on the cable itself near where the cable end is. Corrosion can find a way under the outer covering and affect the cable itself. Try cleaning the terminals on the battery and inspect the cable looking for anything out of the ordinary as corrosion can affect a vehicle's starting ability. The car could be getting just enough power for the lights and radio, but not enough to crank the engine over.
