Thanks everyone. The shift tower was the problem. The shift rails needed to be cleaned and I used penetrating oil to get the forks to move. Emery cloth and 0000 steel wool helped move this process forward. Once they moved, re-installed the tower, started the car, depressed the clutch and BINGO, into second gear. I was able to get all the gears after a bit.
THANK YOU for all the help.
