Default Step 1 -it runs

Followed your advice, I completely cleaned the carb, got new gaskets, and adjusted the float (actually I had to solder holes in the old float).
Now it runs -maybe not well but this thing has been sitting for over 40 years, and someone left gas in the tank. Only has 400 miles on it but... I changed the oil, but suspect that there is a lot od gunk in the rings maybe. I have a video of it running if I can figure out how to post it. New problem though, the clutch is frozen in the engaged position. Any ideas of how to fix this would be appreciated.
