Just got this 30 running for first time in 10t years. Runs great but clutch won't let me get into gear, won't disengage flywheel, what next?

Mouse nest likely to have been inside clutch housing sitting that long. Pressure plate and or throw out is probly froze up as a result. You'll have to take apart, free up, clean, inspect and put back together. Not really a hard job to do. Clutch housing not to bad to get the back cover off. If you don't break something yourself working on it, the only thing that is likely to be actually damaged is the finger retaining springs for the pressure plate. They just a spring made of more less like wire. It takes nothing for these to rust into if in contact with debree and moisture. Especially very accidic mouse manuer and urine.

block the clutch pedal down for a few days and try then. you might get lucky and it's just stuck and will break loose. worth a try
