on your older cars they were attached to the starter itself....some cars like AMC's had them on the firewall, so did I think Fords....You actually tap on the solenoid to engage the starter. If there is no clicking sound at all chances are the battery is totally dead, so even jumping it may not get the car to turn over.....If the car clicks off jumping the car should do the trick. Could be a starter, but if it is you'll be putting out some $'s on these newer cars......
