Bad News: The place I took it too messed something up, tranny fluid leaked everywhere. It is now stuck in the Chick Fil-A parking lot because it is empty (tranny and fluid)

Good News: It was 40 degrees, left it sit for 3 hours or so and it dropped right in gear (I could hear it) when it had no fluid. Based on this, I think a new seal and new fluid will do the trick.

I dunno...?

Do yourself a favor, put fluid in it before you attempt to drive it any distance at all.  If you do not you will most certainly burn-up the trans.

From the pan.

It looks like the shift lever has lot's of side-to-side play. Would this affect it's ability to drop into gear?
