 There is another option:  
 
First, lube up the bendix area with a little WD-40 or the like. Then you can try jumping the battery with another one. I have had some starters that were tired for some reason and not cooperating. The additional amps will sometimes make the starter cooperate. In a Velocity with the battery in the nose, this would seem relatively easy. 
 
Best of luck.
