Solved
It was a stereo track. The click was only on one side. What I had to do was explode it into two mono tracks and then do spectral edits on one side. I was not able to completely eliminate the click, but I reduced the intensity and sharpness, sort of blurring it, until it sank into the background noise. It was annoying because it sounded like someone was keeping time, but it was random and not in time, so it was very distracting. I don't think it was in the original recording. I think it is something like cosmic ray interaction or random ferric oxide decay degrading a 38 year old cassette. But it is now listenable!
Thanks!
