Something to try, get some spray contact cleaner, clean and blow out the safety switches. They may be full of grit and dirt.
What type solenoid does it have? A plunger type mounted on the starter, or a remote contactor type?
The remote type require very little power to energize them, but the starter mounted ones take a lot of amps to overcome the spring and pull in the starter drive. Often they fail to pull in because there is too much resistance in the wire and all the safety switches. Being it acts up cold, there could be cold gummy grease in the starter that loosens up once it's warm. Adding a relay near the starter will almost always solve the problem if it is the starter mounted type solenoid.
Still you need to catch it in the act to positively locate the problem. Try connecting the test light before even trying it, that way you will be ready to catch it.
