Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
If you search in the internet for engine suffix -YV you will find often 327 m/t (for manual trans.). This is wrong in my opinion, see also Chevrolet truck parts catalog, Oct 1969-
It's clear stated C10-C20 3-speed Automatic and this is what I see in practice on my truck.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Looks fantastic man! When you are finished please send me a video showing how it operates. Thanks for the link! I didn't know they can be purchased new... Now I don't have to look for a used one.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Electrical part some issues, missing power on the sealed beam due old greace in the front gear. Solved. One short circuit in the rear still under investigation.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Spotlight is working know. The reason for the short circuit was in this case not the switch, but thank you again for the advise. The reason was a corroded inner bar, therefore the full axial movement was not possible and the lamp was wrong assembled. The rear contact was collided with the gear key.
