Are there no forward gears and just reverse? What do you mean "blew up". Was he racing or just putzing along when it happened?

Suggest to him he check the shift rod coupler and associated bushings (under the plate on the floor between and behind the front seats). Do a search (use search button) here on "shift coupler".
