Best in Show, then Clutch hit floor

[bobpo1]

Took Ms Tillie to the 1st show of the season yesterday, got a nice trophy, then headed for home. About 2 miles from the show (30 miles from home), the gears started to grind during shifting and then the clutch went to the floor and stayed there. Had to be trailered home.

My first suspicion is the throw-out bearing, but I haven't gotten under the coupe yet. I did a search and I hope my suspicions are wrong, looks like a big job, maybe more than I can handle these days.

Any thoughts appreciated.....
