What would cause grinding when going into first or reverse? Also, it's hard to get the car into gear - but it doesn't pop out once in gear. Is it simply a clutch cable adjustment?

Have you tried adjusting the shifter plate to the floor pan? It could be that it is not in its correct location.

Could be fluid; have you changed the fluid and is it full?
Could be clutch adjustment; is there about 1.5" of play?
As Ben has stated; is the shifter adjusted properly?
What about the shift rod bushing and shift rod coupling? have those been inspected and changed if needed?
