Sounds like your reverse lockout pin needs to be adjusted. Simple fix. Put the shifter in neutral, pull the shifter boot away from the floor. Remove the three machine screws holding the metal ring with the three tabs, and pull the shifter out. The pin at the bottom should be extended out 55/64". Yours is likely less than that. If so, remove the hair clip which goes through the plastic sleeve and the gear stick. Unscrew the pin until it's at the right dimension. Replace the hairpin (pay attention to the orientation of the plastic ball and housing or else the knob will be backwards), and reinstall the shifter. Just did the one in my 88 SPG on Saturday, and it takes all of about 5 minutes.
