I have a 1998 Mk VIII that was sitting for about a year due to illness.
The engine starts fine. Shifter works and feels normal, but when put in gear, nothing happens. This is for each gear. It worked fine when parked

We have a few ideas to investigate, but has anyone else experienced this?
 
Something may have become disconnected... or become brittle and broke with the shifter linkage.

Have a buddy, neighbor, friend crawl under the car (engine not running) and have them watch the shifter cable while you move the shifter.
 
If you need a rebuilt trans .. available from ford and thru dealers at about $3500. Installed
