I am restoring a 1965 ford galaxie, I recently changed the gas tank, battery, starter, starter selonoid, and coil but car will not crank over. Think it may be the neutral safety switch but not sure. Anybody have any suggestions

 Hot wire the two wires that overcome the neutral safety switch and if it is the switch it will start. Just cut the two wires (of four,etc.) at the switch in a way that you can easily reattach them if that's no problem. Or you could run a jumper at the connector if you have spare wire on hand. Just make sure you don't start it in gear. Did you make sure the new battery was charged? (some companies sell them uncharged now to prolong their shelf life).
