Won't shift into gear

Hi there I have a 1995 Ford Taurus SHO 3.0L DOHC 100K.
I just bought the car and they said the clutch was bad.
The problem im having is im not sure if its the clutch.
You have to start it I have gear to go (by the way its a cable clutch) and it wont stall out if clutch pedal is depressed but when driving it wont shift to a different gear. Its like the clutch is not engaging all the way or something. If anyone can help that would be great I would love to get some feedback on what you think before I spend 800 dollars to have the clutch done thanks.

Ok sorry about the confusion. You have to start it in gear and when you go to shift the gear to the next one it wont go into gear and it doesn't grind either just wont go in. It feels as if the clutch is engaging but mot all the way because with clutch pressed down it wont stall out but its not allowing you to shift either.

If and when you have the transmission out to replace the clutch, you should also have the flywheel machined and the rear main seal replaced.
It would also be a good idea to inspect your clutch cable adjuster and replace the clutch cable. The cable stretches from use and should be replaced when the clutch assembly is replaced.
Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
