It’s got a bent dogbone mount? You might be on to something with that being the only thing wrong with the shifting.

This could be a great beater or even a pretty easy flip for someone.

it may just be because the bad motor mount is throwing the linkage out of alignment

the strut towers are bad, scary bad. i went and looked at it a few nights ago. def would need some srs work on the strut towers. other than that, the car is in ok shape

also, needs a charcoal canister, im assuming thats why the idle is rough. you could have just bought something to splice the vac lines together to make it idle a bit better…

He was just picking on the fact you used the word whole instead of hole… I often forget this is a car forum not a grammar forum.
