my rhd ls1 build
 
Just got my 68 GMC swb... day after I got it the clutch went out... was saving this swap for later when I was ready and more informed, but no time better then the present .. pulled out the straight 6 with the 4speed floor shift.. if anybody wants it let me know... picked up my new ls and stripped it down ..

Thanks.. honestly I found it on Craigslist ... I traded my 07 Honda cbr600rr for it.. its not original ..it was converted by the kid before me.. that was what got me hooked.. always wanted a Rhd.. my dad is a mail man.. was thinking of doing an old school mail truck them paint. .. it was very intrusting driving it home, shifting with my left hand

Wow....that clutch linkage from pedal to firewall exit must have been a bear to engineer! How did it get around the heater box? YES...pics of the dash (and under) would be great. Neat truck!
