took the car out for a drive stopped a gas station now the car will go in to reverse but cant get in drive unhooked the linkage and still cant shift to drive removed trans pan nothing broke looks like valve body jammed it is a 727 any ideas what could be jamming the valve body from moving.
 
Must be something jammed in the manual spool. You'll have to disassemble the valve body halves and see what's lodged in it.

I don't see how that could happen, and never seen it before.
I have seen the knob on the end pop off and park wouldn't lock.

If it were me I'd disconnect the linkage from the trans and see if it was the trans or the linkage, and if it was the trans I'd pull the pan and push the tang back from the manual valve and see if it moved like it should.
Then if the valve moved I would start looking at the neutral safety/backup light switch.
If it wasn't jamming it then it'd VB removal time to see what got in where, because it seems weird that the valve would just jamb up for no apparent reason.

NSS's do break inside.
