I have a 95 GT with 175k miles. Recently, when I put it into first gear it stutter and shakes sorta like how it would sound if you didnt give it enough gas right before it stalls. This problem only happens in first gear. Another problem I have noticed with 2nd and 1st gear is when im downshifting there is a lot of resistance like it doesnt want to go into gear. Sometimes I double clutch and it goes in easy so I am guessing my syncros are on their way out.

Slipping would be more like if you're on the highway going 65 mph and floor it and the RPM's go up but you don't speed up.

Sounds like you still need a clutch though, more like some pressure plate issues or something. I had a Mustang did the exact same things: was super stiff, lot of chatter/stuttering, was very hard to get into 1st gear and reverse - lot of double clutching like you mentioned. Replaced the clutch and no more problems.

I'd put a new one in before worrying about transmission problems.
