Automatic car staring in any gear?

I Recently had to drop the transmission in my 62 ford falcon. Car has a c4 in it. My last starter failed which threw pieces into my bellhousing. After I put the trans back in how I usually start it, in neutral wouldn't work and started in any gear. Thought it was my neutral safety as I don't see the normal neutral safety in the right place.

The safety switch is out of alignment, check the location.

You hooked the neutral safety switch up to the back up lights and the backup lights to the neutral safety switch.
