With regard to your 1070 trans problem.
1. By virtue of the fact that it is locked in gear would indicate that at least 2 of the 4 gears are connected and okay as far as drive train integrity is concerned.
2. When moving the gearshift you are shifting collars (splined couplings) which if damaged would tend to pop out of gear and not lock in.
3. If gears are "shot" they would be very noisy or one gear would be inoperable. To damage 3 gears at once would tend to be impossible.
4. The most logical cause of your problem based on your information---transmission is in 2 gears at the same time caused by either improperly adjusted linkage(external trans) or worn shifter forks(internal trans) that allow collars to move(float) without moving gearshift. Based on your quoted 4000 hrs. if accurate, the fix would most likely be about a 3 minute linkage adjustment.

We also have a 1978 1070 Case 5000+ hrs. very well built, virtually no repairs.
Another Case 2670 we have and use as a dozer tractor broke a planetary gear in the powershift---local dealer quoted $9000 Can. to repair---fixed it ourselves for under $1000 in parts, free labor(on our own time).
You may want to consider a second opinion on your quoted repair it seems excessive.
