<VV> Clutch Linkage

A few weeks ago, the clutch on my 1965 / 110 became momentarily stuck
on the floor. This has happened several times. Also, when depressing
the pedal, I hear a grinding noise and feel roughness. I believe the
noise is coming from the rear of the car.

I thought the problem was in the linkage cross shaft. Greasing didn't
help so I took the cross shaft apart, cleaned it, replaced the (nylon)
bushings, regreased, and then put everything back together. With the
car still on jackstands, the noise and rough operation remain.

Any suggestions on what is next? Can I drive the car safely?

Thanks,
