Ok, I adjusted the clutch to where it doesnt chatter very much and when I put it in gear, the wheels turn when I let out the clutch. I took it off the jack stands to put it back in the garage because it is supposed to rain. I get in, fire it up, push in the clutch and put it in gear. I let the clutch all the way out and it doesnt go anywhere. I tried several different gear including reverse and it doesnt move at all. What could be the problem? I am starting to wonder if I will ever get to drive this car.

Well, you either snapped the input shaft or the clutch is not engaging.
While on jack stands, it is feasible the wheels could turn, but once you require greater frictional force, you don't go nowhere. Remember the power is transmitted by the splines of the friction disk to the input shaft of the tranny ONLY if the pressure plate has clamped the friction disk to the flywheel. It's the old readjust the clutch thingy. You may not like the chatter, but from the previous thread, it was reported that your type clutch chattered somewhat for a period of time.
