Default car won't start

FOR THE LAST WEEK MY 1995 CORVETTE WOULD MAKE A CLICKING SOUND WHEN I TURNED THE KEY AND THAN IT STARTED, THAN ON FRIDAY IT JUST CLICKED. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY, BUT HAD IT TESTED AND IT IS OK. COULD IT BE THE COIL OR WHAT?

Mine did the same thing. Ended up the cotacts in the selinoid on the starter were shot. I droped the starter, got new contacts from a shop here, (like 3 bucks) resurfaced the cotact washer in the selinoid and reasembed the car. Been good ever since. the whole thing costed me the $3 for the contacts the rest was my time and that was only like 3 hours start to finish. I don't know if it's the same on your Vette but that's what it was on mine.

Good luck
