Help quick please

I am picking up a 95 z28 in a couple hours. It had a bad head gasket and the heads are off (as well as the radiator, batery, etc). It is an automatic and I assume that it is in park. Can I move the car to get it on a traiiler? I won't be able to shift out of park right? Any ideas on how to do this? Is there a way to jump the solenoid that locks the shifter from moving out of park when the key is off and the the brakes aren't on?
Thank you

Dustin

The easiest solution would probably be to hook the battery up for 5 min and put in in nuetral. Hardest would probably me, unhook the trans shifter cable from the trans itself(I believe on drivers side toward the front)...then you can **** if your self from underneath the car, or just remove the driveshaft(4small bolts).

Thanks. I will probably drop the driveshaft.

IMO it would be significantly easier to just reconnect the battery and put it in nuetral. I dont know exactly how the Park swicth works, it may be a manual thing, maybe you can just turn on the ignition and hut the brake and try. However, if you do take the DS route, I believe you need locktite them back, in case you did'nt know.
