Default Clutch is stuck 3/4 down and transmission is engaged

My clutch on my 65 is firmly stuck about 3/4 of the way down and the transmission is engaged. Luckily I have it back in my garage, but I have never done any clutch or transmission work myself. Any thoughts (besides calling AAA to tow to my transmission shop) would be appreciated!

Sounds like a pressure plate failure..

Do you have a shop manual? Wether you do or do not, look under the hood at the linkage and see if you can detect any loose or broken components. Dennis
