Thank you again, Howard! That sounds like a valid possibility as I seemed to recall now that you've reminded me that there was movement other than up and down in the lever. The pieces on the splines appear to be clamped firmly to them, unlike a manual where a piece has to slide to engage one or the other of the levers but I had forgotten about the detent rod and that's the only bit I can't see with it together so it will have to come apart tomorrow. The parts car's is stuck too but no surprise there as it had been parked outdoors for who knows how many years when I bought it.
