Maybe the collar the TO bearing is on is hanging up on the trans front bearing retainer and keeping the clutch engaged somewhat, sometimes more then others. What happens when you stop the car with the brakes and keep your clutch pedal to the floor?
A friend with a Nash had a similar thing going on and one of the levers on the pressure plate had a crack in it and made the clutch drag. He brought the PP over to me and set it on my bench and I told him " I can see the problem from here!" (we were 30 feet away) one lever was about 1/4" lower then the other 2.
