I had the same problem with my '77 B... check for disintegrated transmission mounts. This caused the trans in my car to shift about somewhat, causing a clunk when put into first gear and to pop out o

It could still be the MC... mine would still pump fluid after it failed, just not enough to engage (disengage?) the clutch fully. I'd rebuild the MC and see what happens... you've come this far, migh
