Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

Also been working on the shifter. I didnt like the factory ford shifter that came with that console. So I got to looking at newer consoles lol. The factory shifter for the 07 trucks on has 3 drive positions on the shifter and detents grrrrr. But as luck would have it the 10 up ford trucks have 4 drive positions on the shifter . So off to ebay I went and 35$ later I had a 2010 for shifter lol. I had to make a mounting plate inside the 08 console so that it sat flush with the console top but it worked out nicely as you will see. I also got to looking at the shifting cable the ford one wouldn't work with the chevy transmission so I went looking thinking and hunting around and came up with a bm 6 foot shifting cable from a unimatic setup. More on that later!
