converting from a 350 auto to manual T-56 trans

I will now start collecting all the parts I need to make this conversion. What would be the best way to get parts I need and what part will I need. Anyone know of what year of trucks I can get pedals out of the work in my 68 without a lot of mods needing to be done. All i have to this point is the trans, I have no hydraulics parts so info on good things to look for would be helpful.
I will also have to come up with a yoke to make the driveshaft with. I will see if the pic of the trans will load.

What year of trucks or cars may look at for getting some of the stuff i need, pedal assembly, reservoir, slave cylinder linkage, just everything besides the trans that is.
I will be pulling my transmission out very soon. I hope to sell it even before being pulled. Just would like some insight as to where to start looking to find stuff.
