help please.
 

Sold my 96 Seville sls to a gentleman. He drove it down my dirt road and put it in a ditch(it had been raining and he said the tires wouldn't stop spinning) so I bought it back. It now needs a passenger side fender and door. Maybe a hood. On to the problem, traction control is off. Traction control light is on and I don't have first gear. Is there a way to bypass this so I have first gear with traction control off? I just want first gear. Ill post the current and history codes later. If I can't get first gear im driving the car to the scrap yard.
