The bottom end of your shift lever has worn down, and is no longer grabbing into the notches in the shift rails. This is quite common. Your shift lever is held in place by a pin, the pin, if original, will be held in place by 2 small soft plugs, one at either side. You can pry the plugs off, or just put a punch against one of them and hit with a hammer, the pin and the plugs will come out, then remove the shift lever, it will just lift up. Now you can look down in the hole and see those shift rails, using a large screwdriver, you can line them up so the notches are all in line. The next thing is to build up the worn end of the lever by welding it, I think it needs to measure something like 1/4" by 1/2"? and should be more or less square, not rounded.
