Starter Relay

On my 72 Cuda, I turn the key to start, and nothing happens. Starter Relay has 12V to it from the battery. Was thinking might be the Neutral Safety Switch,
but can't get a new one on there due to clearances. Can I just ground the wire coming off the starter relay, which goes to the NSS,
so the engine will start. Can I leave that wire connected to ground? The connection on the starter relay that gets the 12v ignition start signal
is also getting 12 volts. thanks Or maybe I just need a new starter relay?

Do you have power to the NSS ??
If Yes...
Do you have ground to the NSS ??
If Yes, the switch is bad... Just install a jumper wire until you ban source a new switch.... Bewear !!!! The car will start in any gear that is selected....
