Good to see this post. I bought my 70 C10 back when it was warm and when the first cold snap came I took the truck out and not being familiar with a 3-on-the-tree, I thought something was broken. But you summed it up perfectly, it seems like I'm going to bend or break the gear shift lever to go from R to 1st. Looks like I need to clean out the old grease on mine too.
