Default Cold weather transmission issue

the car has a tranzilla trans and is very clanky even in summer. I have owned it about 6 months and the seller said it was bad during winter. I went out to crank it, engaged the clutch, and it never came back out. Since has been pushed in garage and I have pressed it and pumped a few times but it will not come back out. Any ideas on what to do!??

Sounds like a clutch hydraulics issue not a transmission issue. Did they put a remote clutch bleeder in when they did the transmission upgrade? Sounds like you need to bleed the fluid. It's either contaminated or has air in it.
