Car starts and runs. I've checked all fluid levels everything is normal. But I just can't get it to move. I have tried rocking it back and forth, still nothing. Please help before the dealership has it towed. I'm trying to save this classic car from the junk yard.

Hello thanks for using 2CarPros. Do you mean you physically can't move the shift lever from park to drive?

Yes. Physically, I couldn't move the shifter. But after taking the whole center console apart, I figured out that the foot brake and the park brake weren't connected, so it didn't know I was pressing the brake, so it kept the gear shifter locked. So finding that out I got the car out of the dealership parking lot and home safe and sound! Thanks for replying so quickly.
