After driving a neglected 1979 Chevrolet motor-home with no problem and then parking it it would not move in any gear so what would cause that all of a sudden?

If your Chevy chassis has the Auto-Park feature, it could be that the Auto-Park brake isn't releasing. This can happen when you park the motorhome. (The brake can also suddenly decide to apply itself when you're going down the interstate at 70mph. Neither is a happy situation for the motorhome traveller.)
Here's the deal if everything is working OK: When the transmission is in Park, it doesn't lock the transmission as cars do. Instead, it applies a brake to the drive shaft. When you apply the parking brake (foot brake) it applies the very same brake to the drive shaft. Either way, the brake on the drive shaft tries to lock the rear wheels. So, in order to move, you have to release the parking brake and shifting out of Park has to release the Auto-Park brake. If Auto-Park doesn't release the brake, it will give you exactly the symptoms you have.
