Sounds like a top-shifted OD from the late '70s-80s.

Some pics here:

Domestic Truck Tranny Guide

The first three are the ones. I doubt it's the iron side shift, as you do not have to push down for R.

The picture is of an SROD. The top shift will have the shifter go in the top where the gears load, but will look similar to the pic.

These aluminum cased trannies are not the strongest. You have it behind a 240 or 300? It will be OK but don't hammer it.
