1979 midget 1500
It was a very warm/ humid evening and I went for a quick ride in town. All of a sudden, I found the clutch pedal go to the floor without any pressure. I could not shift for a few seconds. I double clutched and everything returned to normal and it did not occur again. Any thoughts appreciated....
 
Are you low on fluid?

Or, do you still have that low-quality plastic line from the clutch cylinder to the master cylinder?
 
Could also have the rubber seals starting to fail. I had a car the started to do that and required a rebuild of the master.
 
Mine has done that for as long as I have owned the car.... 2.5 years. It's never happened while driving, just when start the car or go to turn off the car.

There's some serious gremlins in my clutch
