Default No Cold Start on 1997 Mustang coupe

ok I have a 97 Mustang 3.8L Auto. Battery and Alternator are good but when it get 48 degrees Fahrenheit or lower the car will not start. I mean upon turning the key I get nothing no cranking no turning over there is nothing other than all dash lights coming on

at 49 degrees Fahrenheit and higher the car starts without any hesitation and runs like a champ

Please help
