Default Newbie to 1995 lr disco

Hello LRF peeps my name is Jeff. ! I was bore and raised in the great state of Oklahoma! AKA an OKIE! I purchased a 1995 Disco from a buddy that has been sitting in a field for 10 years! It was put to green pastures due to a timing chain slip. He purchased the kit but never got to it. I have had it sitting for 2 years and finally getting to it. It has the 2 inch lift and ABS front and rear bumpers. I was thinking of making a river runner out of it but I have so many other projects and not a lot of cash. So I'm debating on selling it. Well as you can guess the rats got to the wiring... but as far as I can tell it was just under the hood and some wires under the trans. I have spliced the wires under the hood and just noticed the ones above the trans, I'm having issues of not getting it to crank and getting it shift out of park to move it. We were able to get it out of park to trailer it to my place. I guessing it is due to connecting a battery and setting the security functions. I disconnected the linkage to the trans to move it. I need to get it to crank to swap timing gear/chain. So I will be posting some questions on this issue as I have exhausted my search for answers.... Hope everyone can help me out! I'm almost to the point of just putting up for sale.

Regards,
Jeff/RUXING
