Reverse Gear

I have a 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD Turbo small 16G. Manuel Transmission ACT2600 clutch, short shifter( which might be the problem)

Description of problem:

A few weeks ago i bought a car. Long story short. After fixing a few things on it we tried backing it out the garage. Since we had to tow it home. The owner said it ran fine TRANNY WAS FINE! Well turns out that reverse gear is none existing. This might sound funny, but literally you can not get into reverse. Forcing it nothing, or trying to slowly shifting i had multiple people try it wouldn't go in. I contacted the previous owner. I am waiting for him to get back to me. In the mean time i would appreciate some suggestions. I think it is the short shifter i don't know what about the shifter linkage or bearings that could be wrong.

Drivetrain:
ACT 2600 Clutch Kit
Roller Skate Shifter Bearings
Non-Cruise Shifter Cable

For easy reference!

Thank You a head of time.
