We had a '51 Chevy car when we lived in Seattle in the 1960's. The hills downtown were so steep that at a stop light, I used the parking brake and released it as I let out the clutch. Otherwise, I'd probably roll back into the car behind me.
Also, "heel and toeing" with the right foot worked. Let up the brake with the heel while giving it more gas with the toes.
Are you rolling backwards at all?
Pictures of the '51 are in the link in my signature.
