No Reverse on 4 speed
1980 4 speed manual. Hi everyone, thanks to your help I'm making progress. Got it started after carb rebuild. Then a new master cylinder allowed me to try and drive it for the first time. No reverse, which is what I was told by the person who had it sitting in the garage for 5 years (that is why it was sitting in his garage for 5 years). When I put the shifter into where reverse should be, it goes moves forward instead of back. Perhaps the idler gear is not moving properly into place?
Two things: first, I'm interested in your thoughts on this.
Second, I'm ready to start taking off the tranny, but is there anything else I should diagnose or test before I do that?
Thanks!

Okay. So do you recommend that I simply take off the entire trans and then take a look? I'm guessing there is no getting around having to take the whole thing off the car.
