Answer
Hi Charles -

Seems like the transmission is shot to me. I am assuming the oil level is fine -

Pull the dipstick out and check the color and smell of the oil. If it is more brown than red, and if it smells burnt, then the transmission probably needs an overhaul. Especially if reverse is working fine.

Hope this helps -
