Serious Clutch Problem?

My 79 GS sat for a very long time,we bled the cylinder very good, but the clutch seems not to be realeasing. the master and slave cylinder are working though, just not making a full disengagement. This is not a problem that occured with where and tear, but just sitting for a long long time. Any ideas?

The clutch disc could be froze up on the input shaft with rust or crud and not sliding properly.
Best thing to do is to drop the tranny to see.
