reverse would be somewhat fixable, but the other gears I think it's time for a new one or a rebuild..sorry that's my advice.

sounds like you have broken linkage
have someone move the shifter and look at the linkage you should see a broken part looks like a dog bone on the early transmitions
and the newer ones have a cable shifer that has a small plastic pivot that goes bad
