Re: 1968 redo
I got the floor and behind the cab sprayed the other day. You cannot tell in this pic but the steering column is a different shade of blue with metallic. Door panels and top of dash between pad and windshield will be this color as well.

Re: 1968 redo
Turn signal switch replaced. Was a little bit of a booger getting it in. Had to refer to a few posts on here.

Re: 1968 redo
I am in need of all of these little parts that are supposed to go inside the circle on the clutch rod. Its being held in there with a cotter pin currently. All of the parts disintegrated when they were removed.

Re: 1968 redo
Working on the carb. It's a monojet. Removed and ready for disassembly and a good cleaning.

Re: 1968 redo
Carb is torn down and cleaned up. I hope I can remember how to put this back together.

Re: 1968 redo
It is raining here and 40 degrees. Ended the plans to paint the door panels and top of dash today. So, I started work on the manifolds. Broke a stud off the exhaust manifold and found a crack. I'm gonna be needing a new exhaust manifold.

Re: 1968 redo
Nice progress! Here's the clip that normally goes where you have a cotterpin in your clutch rod.

Re: 1968 redo
Thanks I have the clip, but seems like there was a bushing or grommet. Kinda like the linkage stuff on upper shift rod

Re: 1968 redo
A search indicates that some trucks did have a bushing there. See this thread, for example:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=653944 Also, take a look at the first photo on this website. They show a little white bushing sitting next to the end of the push rod. https://4speedconversions-com.3dcart...k_linkage.html This might be the right part. It could also be the larger pedal shaft bushing though. Hard to tell its size in the photo, but the description seems right: https://classicparts.com/1971-84-clu...sh-rod-bushing |

Re: 1968 redo
Yes, the little white bushing is what crumbled when we took it out. Thanks.
