Icon2 Car wont budge.

I have installed my engine after rebuild. the transmission is installed. THe thing is my battery died and I need to push it out of my garage to jumpstart it but i cannot move it. It seems like the front wheels wont move. When i lifted the car up, I manually rotated the front wheels and the opposite wheel would always spin the other direction. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

OP Didn't specify whether it's a manual or an automatic transmission. I'm assuming it's a manual. If this is true, Make sure you installed the pin on the shift linkage correctly and that its tight. The shifter may seem like it's in neutral, but if that pin isn't in all the way it might not be pulling the tranny completely out of gear. Easy to tell if you're under the car.
