Thanks, Randall. I have told them to do the engine mount, as the car clatters over bumps. While that may turn out to be a suspension thing, I've never had a car this old that wasn't substantially improved by a new motor mount.
I also suggested going ahead with a clutch, as I do not know anything about the one other car (other than that it works very well). The shop is pretty conscientious, and they don't want me to pull the trigger on that until they can take a look at it -- could be 6 months old for all we know. Still, I'm generally inclined to make sure there's no reason to drop the engine or transmission for a long while.
