Farmall Regular Stuck Clutch

Hey all! I am restoring my grandfathers old 1929 Farmall Regular and I am having a bit of a problem. I've got the clutch cover off and the linkage all undone but I need help getting the multi disk clutch out of the engine itself...I know I have to take out the shaft in the middle of the clutch but how do I do this?? This was packed with mice crap but I've since then got a lot of it cleaned out and I have suspicions that its rusted to the flywheel too?? Im also going to need parts for this and I cannot find anything on these clutches period online which is unfortunate. I am age 15 and this project has been a great experience for me and I hope to get to do many more tractors after this one but this is my first and I cant wait to see it run like a champ! The tractor itself hasnt run for more than 50 years and all the other internal parts look amazing as if no water got into the engine block period!!
Cant thank you all enough for your help!

I have one of those multiple disc clutches that is in pretty good shape if you end up needing parts. Have a few other Regular parts as well.

Congratulations on taking on this project. Went through one, just as bad, and was able to use all the parts. Can't remember how it came apart. Will have to consult a manual or parts book, (or you could). You might want to double check the year of your tractor, as they switched to a single disc clutch, in 1928.
 
My hat is off to you for that project. Soak, Soak, and Soak
some more. I just sold one earlier this year, it was also a
1929. Good luck, and keep us posted on progress.
 
Alright So I have been soaking the shaft with PB blaster to try to get it to free up. Ross, thank you so much for the offer and I will need parts if not a whole new good one... the plates that are in it right now the 2 triangular corners are rusted and rotted out from the damn mice. We will see what else needs fixing. Also just out of curiosity what other parts do you have? Also is there anyway I can contact you about the clutch you have and how much you might want for it??? Thanks! I will keep you all informed with my progress and I think I will just document the whole fixing of the tractor on here so stay tuned!!

You can swap out the flywheel and put in the more serviceable single disc clutch, No one will know but you and your wallet

That may be true but I want to try and keep the tractor as original and complete as physically possible. And who knows I may have to do that but I want to try with the old clutch first. That way I wont have to pull the flywheel if it'll move when I get the clutch out.
