That is equipped with a side post battery and that style of battery is prone to internal terminal failure.
Double check the terminal connection at the battery by removing both cables and inspecting for seepage. Use extreme caution when inspecting because what you're looking for is an acid and can cause serious burns. If you get it on your hands, wash them before you touch anything else.
You will also want to make sure that both ends of both cables are clean and tight. Sometimes, the acid leaking from a faulty battery will cause cable damage near the battery connection.
To be safe, remove and charge the battery. Most auto parts stores will test and charge batteries for free. While you have the battery out, clean the battery terminals and cable connections and examine the cables for hidden corrosion. Also, test all under hood and under dash fuses with a multi-meter.
