sticky clutch

So I recently got a 1985 GS and I fixed it to working condition but now the only thing that the car has a problem with is that when I hit the clutch it sticks.

I need some help figuring out what to do because I am fairly new to cars and I am still learning. so if anyone could help me that would be amazing.

u'll have to elaborate alittle more. what do u mean by "it sticks"? pedal stays on the floor? if that's the case, bleed the system. if u end up needing to replace either the slave or master cyl, do both.

First, try just working it back and forth for a while. Better yet, have one of the kids do it for you. I had an Audi that did the same thing, and after about ten minutes and a sore arm it started working correctly again and I never had the issue after that.
