Several problems cause shuddering:
Oil on the clutchplate from a leaky crank seal
Engine/tranny mountings shot
Flywheel needs refacing
Clutch cable/fork not realeasing smoothly (rust and crap in the cable sleeve)
It is likely you have one or a combonation of the above problems.
The whining could be due to low oil or a need to change it
the box may have very high milage and is worn out.
