That isn't the best description but I would make sure the wheels have a good balance on them. Then you mentioned the clutch, which makes me believe you might have a bad T/O beairng. I don't know, vibrations at 20 MPH sucks, usually nothing vibrates at low speeds like that.

sorry about the the bad way i decsribe things , well 1 of the clutch forks does hit the T/O bearing i accually feel the tranny is on its way out accually the drivashaft does move in the bearing in the tailhousing but not to to bad so i think that bearing is bad as well, and just replaced the axel bearings last week , i know the car was hard drivin before i bought it and it sat for 3 years ,but the car has a jerking motion when your driving it at 20 mph when the clutch is depressed while coasting the jerking stops so it isnt tires

Sounds like it is something in the drivline then. I would say T/O bearing, or fork, or both.
