.... cause it to not move forward or back?

Trying to help some friends who's 85 500SEL has been sitting for over a year. They want to sell it, 113k miles.

Before even trying to start it I checked the ATF level and it was at least an inch over the upper fill mark! Sooooo .... I will remove the excess ATF ... add oil, charge the battery ... etc.

But to the question: Would this existing overfill prevent it from moving?
