Binding and clunk sound in reverse

[s_chev]

My '86 Targa has started making a strange cluck sound and you can feel a small binding for about the first 5 feet when I go in reverse. After that backing up it's fine, but it scares me. Tranny seems fine otherwise for the forward gears.

Got any clues?
Thanks,

Ideally, have someone else back your car while you listen carefully for the location of the sound. To get you started:
Check all calipers and pads for tightness/integrety. Check the emergency brake shoes.
Check CV joints for binding/noise.
Check transmission mounts.

I think I noticed a similar noise a while back in reverse, ended up finding a torn inboard cv boot a while later. Ended up replacing the axles, as they were probably overdue. Good luck, post what you find.
