Angry MY camaro just died :(

I have a 1992 camaro rs 305 stick so i was driving and then i stopped put it in neutral and then when i tried to put it back into gear it wouldn't go so i shut it off put it in gear and tried to turn it over and it lunged forward while the car turned over which means the clutch is engaged so what went wrong that i cant disengage the clutch with the pedal ??????

low or no oil in the clutch master cylinder reservor, bad clutch master cylinder and or slave cylinder will do it. look for oil leaking around the two cylinders. master on the driver side firewall, slave is under the car driver side of the transmission. clutch linkage could have a arm that has came off. can u feel resistance when u push the clutch peddle down.

If you pump the clutch pedal many times and quickly, does it build up pressure and then go limp again? ....no wise-cracks!
