hi there, you need a pic with better lighting. really hard to see the car.
does it have any markings on it?

the clutch bell housing should rest up against the spur gear(as the housing is the pinion gear as well)

Can you take a close up picture of the clutch?

It looks like the clutch bell exploded. The exposed part with the spring wrapped around it is the clutch shoes. I have no idea what model that is. You may be able to find a generic one if you count the teeth on each gear, then maybe do a search on ebay for two speed clutches.

agreed, clutch bell go bye bye!

i would get a new bell, and go ahead and replace the springs and shoes while you are at it.

looks like its a 2 speed tranny on that car.

can you get a nice clear pic of the car? the better pics of the motor helped alot.

how are the spur gears? in the pics one of them looks like some of the teeth are worn down. maybe just the angle of the pic tho.
