Check that the ground stud on the end of the starter is tight in the brush holder. Tighten the jamb nut if necessary. Same with the pos stud on the solenoid. Clean them. Clean the cable connections. If you have the clamp on cable ends... get rid of them and SOLDER on NEW crimp style ends... provided that the cables are good and don't seem to have broken strands.

If that doesn't solve the problem then the humble Lucas probably needs a new set of brushes and a new end bushing. Pretty basic maintenance on those things... and it's good to go for another 3000 hours. Just because it spins up fine on the bench doesn't mean the brushes are good...
