Welcome.
If you have all the linkage, have your local machinst make some bushings out of brass.
The ends wear out and it super easy to do.
My neighbor made brass bushings for all of the rod ends on my last 3 on the tree, for $20.00.
This will tighten the linkage up so it don't bind.
If you are missing the rods them I would just throw in an aftermarket floor shifter to get the car moving.
