if it stalls, then I would say it is the clutch. I had a 73 super beetle that did that; the clutch broke into pieces when we removed it!! 
different car, I know but it is the same symptom. hopefully you'll get other opinions...

It could be that return spring inside the tranny not to mention some bad synchros...have you checked the fluid at all or even drained and replaced it to make sure it is clean and at the right level?
