Hey guys,

I dragged home another toy. Its a 1966 GMC tilt cab with a 305 V6. Shes in overall pretty good shape. Runs but I'm pretty sure has blown head gaskets or something worse. Smokes white pretty bad.

Anyway, my problem at hand is the throttle linkage. When I press on the pedal, nothing happens. I think the pedal rod is compressing into itself - see the video and pictures below

Does anyone have a tilt cab they can take some pictures or better yet a video? Its been kinda of difficult to find any information on these.

Thanks for the help.
