The Ford Barn

Hi all,

I was driving my 29 Fordor yesterday and had an interesting issue. I noticed that as the clutch pedal was fully depressed, it seemed like it was still grabbing and not fully disengaged and was difficult to get into gear. My first thought of course was that the clutch maybe was about to go. However, I realized that if I were to lift up on the pedal about an inch, it was then fully disengaged and shifted fine. It's as if the pedal was going down too far. I readjusted it to engage closer to the floor and it seems fine now, but I'm not sure what would have changed. Any thoughts??

Thanks for any input
