Re: My '67 Fleetside C10 renew

Been plugging away a bit here lately. Blew the cab and bed back off, pulled the exhaust and welded that all up for good (Boy did that is). Block and crank will be headed to the machine shop here soon for clean/inspect/bore.
I trucked over to Coeur d'Alene and picked up those clutch master cylinder bits from CaptianFab. All I can say is that it's super, super well done. It came out slick, works perfect and looks great. Thanks John!! I put his laser cut plate onto the firewall, then took the closest size hole-saw and ran it through. I then took a burr and used it much like a flush trim router bit, letting the smooth part of the shank ride around the plate while the cutters flushed the firewall to the plate. I drilled a 3/8" hole in the clutch pedal lever to line up with the master cylinder linkage. It's perfect! The pedal strokes almost to the floor and the linkage action and actuation of the master is spot-on. I still have to order up that Novak slave kit. Next up is welding out the engine stands I fabbed as well as all the No Limit suspension parts out back to get rid of some of them "bolt-on" bolts.
