clutch hard
Gday everyone , Have a clutch pedal issue in my 77 , its changing gear ok with no noise or grinds and no reasons to be concerned before , but after parking on a steep hill (nose down) i found pedal wouldn go all the way in when i tried to engaged to reverse out and the pedal was harder than a boiled egg. Any ideas on what it could be , master cylinder 3/4 full , it feels like somethings jammed up. Could it be slave cylinder stuck.

clutch issues
motors a 351c with a 4 spd toploader and a 9" diff , very stock truck , ok what ever the issue was , it has now fixed itself ....still got me stumped as to what caused it. I did pump and pump clutch trying to free it up and made no difference until i had to move it out of driveway and when i switched engine off clutch pedal went down and back up and it was normal

May not have anything to do with the clutch, master or slave, but more to do with the throwout interferring with pressure plate fingers somehow.
The best thing to do is bleed the clutch line.
Verify the firewall isn't flexing or cracked behind the clutch master.
Make sure the slave is contacting the clutch arm correctly.
