Well that's entirely consistent with either the rubber coupling being split or the shift linkage being way out of adjustment. If you have concluded that the rubber is not split then you need to expose the alignment hole inside the car and check and correct the adjustment. Here's a photo of the hole(s) that need to be aligned. This car's interior is entirely stripped out but you can access the hole without doing all that. In this photo the car is in fourth gear so you can see the hole in the shaft and the hole in the shift housing that must mate up when in third gear. In third gear the shaft will slide straight back and the holes will overlap. I'll post another photo of that.
