Re: 62' GMC 3/4 ton project

Finally had a chance to get some work done on my truck after moving my family to Oregon. My truck and myself are still in California and now my wife and Daughter are in Happy Valley Oregon. I'm stuck in California to take care of a few obligations and to get my truck together enough to drive it north. In the weeks before packing them up I was able to finish the swaybar mock up and sandblasting the frame. My wife also talked me into upgrading the transmission so we ordered a new adaptor bell housing and a brand new (rebuilt) NV4500 from Advanced Adaptors. The new bell housing moves the clutch fork to the drivers side and I will need to fabricate a new transmission mount as well I was worried the factory manual transmission mount would interfere withe the new bell housing. Today I mocked up the bell housings a took some measurements, I do believe it will NOT interfere. Now I can move on to blasting the front end components and finally paining them and the frame.
