I know that this is an 85 > 900. you burnt up your starter. The ignition lock is full off junk( you spilled a soda in there over the weekend, right?) and when you started the car, the key stayed stuck in the start position. Thats why your dash electrical things didn't work. after the car started, the starter continued to run with the engine, consuming more power than the charging system can put out. eventually the voltage drops to a point where the ignition system doesn't work. Thats when your car died. you were able to bump start it becase the starter stopped running. but at that point the starter motor was already dead. put on a new starter and clean out the ignition lock with WD-40. lol!
