Anyone wanna take me to go pick it up?

Look at the bright side, at least you get a new, better performing clutch out of the deal. Had it been the tranny, you would have paid more and basically had the same same car you had prior to the failure.

Sort of like replacing a failed water heater at home; you had hot water before it failed, you have hot water after it's replaced, you just have a lighter wallet.

Having a nice new clutch is a good upgrade in my opinion, (providing this was the original '99 clutch.)

You mean the throwout bearing? Happened in my '70 911... driving, and POP! The clutch no worky. Turns out the throwout bearing had ripped out of the pressure plate. The clutch was worn. Replaced the clutch assembly, and all is well.

Thanks for the offer to take me. My brother is on the way to take me there. Crappy day to go get it back. The car never sees rain. And it was the Clutch disc. The center broke right off the rest of it. I will get some pics of it if my guy did't chuck it.
Thanks again.
