Put a vice grip on very low tension upstream of the shift tube--only enough to grab it gently and not cave it in or mar it up too much--then rotate it from side to side in very small increments while putting tension on it towards the firewall--and it will come out-
That siezure is just from years of being mated up--- |

Get someone to sit in the passenger compartment. Have them put the shifter in 2/4 gear, and hold it.
Sometimes all you need is to keep pressure on the shift rod in the opposite direciton. Then take a mallet and tap the fitting loose. -Rusty (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smoke.gif) |

Some liquid wrench won't hurt.
