76 C6 no 3rd gear

3rd and reverse do use the same set of clutches to work so that should rule out a failed direct clutch. If the transmission will shift from 1st to 2nd when driving in the D range this could indicate a stuck 2-3 shift valve in the valve body.
If you can only achieve a 1-2 shift by placing the shifter in 2nd then this would indicate that the transmission is just not shifting, this could be because of no vacuum to the modulator or a stuck governor valve.
