Unhappy 86 firebird help

i have a 86 firebird with a 2.8 v6 and a 5speed transmission... ok before everyone jumps me and tells me to get a real car LOL.. this is my baby my first car i have ever owned and i'm not really into raceing her or etc.. i just love my car and i know most would never conseder her a muscle car and 99% of the time i will agree... with that said ...this is my problem maybe you all could help me out...

i was driving her one day and i went to shift from 3 to 4th and i heard a big knock and then some grinding... so i took her home.. the next time i was forced to drive her the grinding had stopped but now once she has been running for a while she doesnt want to go into first gear... and when i think she is in first gear she doesnt move like she is in nuteral ... does any one know what i am talking about? and if so what is it so i can fix it???

thank you all for your time ...

always

no go

look above your brake booster and you will see a little container that holds brake fluid it is for your hydralic clutch check and see if it filled up to the line
