Hello,
My 1945 Farmall A had a stuck clutch which turned out to be the pressure 
plate rusted to the "driven member" clutch disk.  There is no rust pitting.
What should I do? I was told that replacing the clutch is the best 
option.  However, the total will come to about $180.  I don't mind 
spending the money, but since the two halves separated without damage, 
can I reuse the clutch?  I also read that you can "slip" the clutch 
slightly and burn off the old rust if you reinstall it.
Could I clean the rust off the pressure plate and only buy the "driven 
member" or even the other way around?
And advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben Wagner
