c-lutch bizness

[blake at clockworm.com (Blake Irvin)]

15 to buy or rent?  I don't even know where to buy that kind of
stuff (am a n00b).

to be honest, i've never done a clutch on any car before, so feel
more comfortable with professional help at this point.

i do plan to replace my rear brakes myself, and other things like that.
