There's a good chance it hasn't been converted to negative earth then. Try connecting the solenoid to the negative terminal of the battery and earth to the positive.

I don't know what you mean. There's just two battery cables; one goes to the solenoid and the other is earthed to the battery tray, as you can see in the photo I posted. The other side of the solenoid supplies the starter motor.

I was told by morris minor birmingham that,If the negative earth goes to the body,it means its negative earthed.I might be wrong but.......
