1989 honda prelude wont move?

OK, So it starts and runs good, i can push in the clutch (its still tight) but when i shift it into a gear and release the clutch it will not move. When you press on the gas when the clutch is not pressed but it's in gear it just revs up and does not move. You can hear it shift into reverse, but it will not move. anyone got any ideas? not sure what size motor because I just got it from a friend, they said I could get it if I knew what was wrong with it.

    Three possible problems #1 clutch master cylinder not working,not producing hydraulic pressure to move the slave cylinder to disengage the clutch disc.#2 slave cylinder not holding pressure produced by master cylinder to disengage the clutch disc#3 Clutch disc burnt out and no amount of pressure will fix that,needs new clutch disc,pressure plate and for good measure replace the master and slave cyl.
