Okay, Okay.
Thanks again for everyone's help. My wife would say since I'm now hearing what I don't want to hear, I'm tuning out. True, I do not want to replace the clutch. That fear however has motivated me to replace the pinched line, and since I'll have the hydraulic system open, the slave cylinder too.
There is an update. I massaged the pinch - a tap here, a squeeze there - trying to open up the line a bit more. Then when test driving the car, the disengage problem was still present and noticeable in reverse. However, once the car was in the street and I turned it off, put it into first, pushed the clutch in, and started it up, I took off and was able to shift into second by double clutching. Never did that before, but I'm not sure I tried it double clutching it before. Could not downshift at all. Double clutching, triple, pushing it five times, could not downshift.
I posted a WTB ad for the clutch line segment that has the pinch. If you have a parts car, send me a PM with a price shipped to Decatur, IL 62526.
Thanks, Joe
