You didn't specify whether you had a 4-speed or auto but since it's an 82 I'm assuming auto.

If you hadn't noticed it slipping; then you probably have a broken part.
If it has never been rebuilt, been a long time since a rebuild, or you noticed it slipping; your piston seals are due for replacement and or maybe some clutchs as well.
Either way you are looking at taking it out.
I have also assumed you have fluid in it.

Check the shift linkage under the car, it's very possible it's come loose! I had the same problem and thought possible tranny. It could very well be the linkage.
