Subject:manuel trans pop's drops out of third gear

Greeting all.
I have just aquired a 1980 vanagon with manuel trans . It has been sitting
for about 3 years and spent a day
getting it running and gas tank reseal.  The thing is that the shifter  seem
to just drop out of third gear once and a while.
It does have a shifter extention on it .  180,00.0 + miles are on  it .
Other than this it shifts very smooth in all gears.
I checked the archive and only find the 3/4 slider issue.
Any ideas?
