I went to the junk yard today to pick up the disc brake parts I needed for my 68. Since I'm always looking for "stuff" I look in a truck they have on the forklift to crush and what do I see, a clutch pedal cover for the firewall. And its the same color as my truck!!! Ive been looking for one for a year.
Why does no one make these? They could make a ton.

They are reproduced. GMC Paul sells them for 5 bucks. Made in USA by original manufacturer for GM.

Thanks.
I've looked everywhere. Maybe I should have just ask here.

My son needs one of those also, looked it up at gmc pauls and yes he has them for 5.00 bucks. You will just have to pay a lot for shipping of this small part.(9.00) Guess we will just keep on looking.

I had to let a 69' 3/4 ton Big block truck get crushed not to long ago..... I couldn't save it due to the cash i didn't have that day..

I guess I ought to get a template of an original one and cut out a bunch with the plasma cutter. Then sell them to guys on here cheap and charge like 1.00 shipping.

I could probably do them for 5 bucks total delivered. Mine wouldn't have the rubber gasket though.

My son was thinking about cutting one out and just welding it in... Guess that would work?

67-70 are plastic.
