For a frozen clutch in the MGA, I think the preferred method is to put the
rear axle on jacks, then start the car.  With the car running (the rear wheels
will be spinning) push down on the clutch then slam on the brakes.  After a 
couple of trys the clutch should break free.

My car has been sitting (although indoors) for a few years now and I'm sure
I'll have the same problem...
