64 starter drive
the starter drive on my bird went out so i got a rebuilt one and threw it on. when i tried to start it, it won't turn over, but it sounds like it really wants to. so i pulled the starter again. now i've got the starter drive on the starter in the locked position. the drive is a little longer than the original. long enough that it is actually wedged on the starter so that i can't get the pin in the end out, to get the drive off. i'm thinking the drive won't reset so the car won't turn over. ?????? i'm stuck! any help would be greatly appreciated

I think I would take it back to the the parts store and have them look it over.

There are two different starters for the T-Birds from 1958 thru 1964. The difference is in the length of the starter shaft where the Bendix mounts. Sounds like you have the WRONG starter.
