Hello all-

So I have been bad and not started the car for over 6 months.  Problem 
is that the engine seems to be frozen.  I can not turn it over by hand 
and I tried putting car in gear and rocking it. but can not get the 
engine to budge.  All was fine when I garaged it.  The starter turns but 
won't engage.  So I am kind of stuck.  What next to try to unfreeze 
it?   I am fearing having to do a whole tear down (removing gearbox) to 
get things corrected.  Just hate to do that if there is an easier way.

Any suggestions?
