Looks great!

Wich one? The bench one is the 16" and is now collecting dust. The T5 s-10 replacement was 11 or 12. The current one is the Indy 3-on-tree conversion stick trimmed down one hole, about 1" shorter. It sucks having the piston on there but need neck adapter for T-handle with button.
I would go with the shorter bench shifter (13") just too much reach in 5th and to much overhang on seat.

2nd gear, tight to top leg, clears seat. I sanded chtome down being tossed around 20+ years

LVPhotos · 02-27-2018, 10:33 PM

The Porterbuilt moved everything up and fwd 2" so the small hump tossed for high hump. The tko 600 came with mount far rear. I turned it to #2 position 2"-3" fwd. So my configuration might not be right for you.
This is 16" if the curve was not at bottom forward gears especially 5th it would work. Still over seat .

Sweet man, thanks for the detailed pics. I couldn't decide between using a 13.5" or 16" hurst stick for my T56 with forward shift conversion so that confirmed it. Your truck is killer! one of my favorites on the forum

Nice ride, good read, great job overall. I am getting a 1962 shorty in the next month. Currently have a "69 C10 built from the ground up, LS and so on. So, now i get to build the "62. Want to bag it and do similar to how you did this one.

VETTE10R · 11-04-2019, 08:14 PM

Awesome build! Any updates?

LVPhotos · 11-06-2019, 06:57 PM

Well, I been out of town working.... but picked up these gems in Iowa. NOS front fenders, one painted the guy did not like color. Tailgate like it was taken off for camper... no dents. Some stainless sills, day/night mirror, radio delete pnl...

LVPhotos · 02-17-2020, 10:44 PM

I just looked through your entire thread and you've got a great build going on. I am doing my hood right now and I'm dealing with a lot of the same issues and I'm using you're page for reference. Thanks for the detailed pics of your build. I am also getting ready to assemble and install my bed. I'll be following your progress.

LVPhotos · 03-14-2020, 06:01 PM
