Pinion shot now what

I am at the brink deciding to throw more money into my car or cut my losses and run. It was confirmed the pinion bearing is going on my car, "advanced" was the word used.
1. What are the signs of "the end"
2. How long can you go with it failing? It is not yet popping out of gear.
3. If I go for a rebuilt are there any pros/cons for a 4sp vs 5sp.
My car is an 87 with 117k. I have ALL records since new, it spent several yrs in the south (I am in Maine), I have all the dealer catalogs from 87 and OEM car cover etc etc. prior owner was meticulous. It has been well cared for and is probably worth the money. I hesitate to call it an investment since I will never get my money out of the car- but sentiment has to count for something.....
