Found clutch problem

[1930artdeco]

I was coming back from Hot August Nights and was going to visit the Aunt in Sacramento. Well she suddenly would not go into gear-at all. I had to jamb her into first so I decided nope going home after getting gas. Nope. After filling up that was all she wrote.

So I did what every Model Aer does I reached out to the local club and several Capitol Aers came out to lend a hand. While I was trying to adjust the fingers on the clutch which were out of whack in various ways we heard a bang. Then the phone came out and 1-800-AAA.....

Anyhow I got time to tear Barbara apart and here is what I found.
#1 Clearly shows why the TO Bearing won't move
#2 Shows the clutch in the car with one finger (at 12 oclock) really sunk way down. I am not able to get it to even move.
#3 Not sure if this contributed but the TO Bearing spins freely but a little rattely.
#4 The disk is fine and still quite usable but I bought a new one so I will install that with a new cover plate and bearings.
