It ran fine for half the morning.

Made a coffee stop and when I tried to re-start, smoke came out of the starter...
The battery cables where super hot, too...

I took the starter out and had it rebuilt, thinking I fried it. I recharged the battery, re-installed the starter, new (thick) battery cables and... nothing happens...

Not a click, not a movement from the starter.

What should I do next?
Could the regulator be involved?

Any input would be appreciated, fellas!

Thanks,
