If you still lived in Utah I'd be happy to work on your gearbox.  I've done
one or two in my time ;-)  Normally the 3rd and 4th gear synchros don't
wear as much as 2nd gear, and 1st if you have a full synchro box.  It may
be an issue with the thrust washers on the layshaft, though if the layshaft
is flopping around you tend to get poor shifts in all gears and a general
noisy operation.

One possibility is that the car is totally worthless, unfit for 
driving.  Bring
it by my place and I'll give you $100 cash for it.
