Cab swap question

I recently got a call from an old guy that started to restore a truck and is leaving the area, and is giving up the project. He called me as he thought i would be interested in the truck. He removed the original cab (4 spd) and relpaced it with another he had in better shape. The floors are good he has just finished tinstalling new cab corners (bodywork and all is done) he has a mess of spare parts from rebuilding two of these trucks in the past and everything is goin with it. The only problem now is that i cant hear it run because the cab on the truck now was originally an automatic. He has everything hooked up when you turn the key nothing happens. He says it is because the park lockout (will only start in park or neutral on automatic tranny) is what is wrong and he cant remember what wire you have to cross to fix it. Anyone taken an automatic cab and put it on standard tranny frame and had this problem. I wanna hear this thing run to find out if it is worth the thousand dollars (and ton of parts in excellent shape). So it is automatic cab and wire harness on a 4 speed frame and need to know what wire to jump the park lockout????????
 
Just use a remote starter switch. on the solonoid clip 1 end to the small post toward the front of the truck & the other side to either the pos cable or the large post where the pos cable ataches to the solonoid.
