I would also rig up a manual bypass for the neutral safety switch just in case to test when it happens again; if the switch is faulty or misadjusted it will not turn over at all. Do the lights work when this happens or is everything dead?

I think Jody is on to something here . I just had a car in my shop with the same problem. I just put a battery in the car about 4 months earlier. The car would be fine , then all of a sudden it would'nt start. It would jump right off with the jump pack . But I never thought of the battery because I just put it in.Spent countless weeks with this problem. After I really sat down and went through all I did and checked. I did what Jody is telling you and it turned out the new battery was junk .. (DELCO) just must of gotten a bad one... All is good now.
