I own an old 1975 Porsche 914 and we recently got the car up and running. One issue we are having trouble getting it into fourth gear. We don’t know if it may be the linkage or if it’s something more complex.

Trashed shift coupler bushings will do exactly that, make it tough (impossible) to find 4th gear. In my expereince anyway... As others have said, check all the linkage and associated bushings. There is as good a chance as any that you'll find the issue right away.
