Mystery partially solved!
RRT just gave me a ring and their initial thought is that my transmission is toast. Clutch at least appears to be working. With car on lift and in R, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, the car is silent and there is no movement, but in 4th - 6th they say the transmission sounds like a "bag of rocks."
Next trick is to try and find a transmission. Thinking they might have one in the shop from a previous wreak and will let me know. Anyone out there sitting on one or know of one which might be available?
I asked them to plan on doing the clutch while they're at it.
