Clutch replacement 1986 Spider Quad?

Do you have a way to get the car up high enough - safely - to work underneath and remove the transmission? Or a hoist to remove the engine? Have you done similar (relatively major) mechanical work before?

It can be done (a strong teenage to lift things could help as long you don't mind if he hears curse words - perhaps you could learn them in Italian?).

What prompts you feel the need to change the clutch? What symptoms does the car exhibit?
 
You will need to get the car high enough (safely) to lie underneath, lower the transmission and slide it out from under the car. Low ramps probably won't suffice. Some tall, sturdy jack stands will be needed. A transmission jack (or transmission adapter for a floor jack) would be well advised.
