The 69 has very minor dings in a few, low visibility spots, 350 2 barrel runs like a raped ape and there is a small amount of rust on the bed sides that are being worked on as time, money and pain permit. The big problem I have at this point is 1st and 3rd gear sound like they are being eaten alive. This just started the other day when a neighbor tried to adjust the clutch to make it easier for me to shift. (Three on the tree.) I have trouble getting under the truck to try and find the source, but from inside it sounds like it's coming from further back than the tranny and too far forward to be the rear end. I'm fixing to eat a bunch a pills so I can get the rear end in the air and go under but by the time I get the edge off the back pain I'm usually pretty foggy eyed and stupid. I live a bit off the beaten track so getting help is always a problem.
Any ideas where to look?
