Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
nocking the bondo out of the holes is easy! get a screw driver and go from the out side where you can see cracks and then for the inside you get a chisel and knock off the big part that dripped down the back side and then do the screw driver if it didnt come out

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
Alright here's my throttle linkage, see what you think about kickdown cable placement......also a pick of the transmission where the kickdown cable bolts on (what's left of it! notice that it doesn't continue on above the cooler lines)

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
Also got these in the mail today! Really good shape, just need a good cleaning, shining up, and a lil paint. May use one of mine that's already pretty shiny. I am missing the nuts that go on the back I have zero. Need some, anyone got some spares?

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
67s with custom or CST badges had little sleeves that expands in the hole and holds it on. 68 uses the little nuts like the fender emblems

The problem is that the T-350 didn't come around until two years after your truck was built. Somebody most likely swapped it in to replace a power glide trans that is the same length. If it was a 3-speed auto it was a T-400 in 67 and 68. If you can find throttle linkage from a 69-up 6-cyl truck with a T-350 then it will have the correct provisions to connect the kick down cable properly.

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
I don't know how long they used that throttle linkage design but you may be able to even use a square body part too not just the 69-72.

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
Nice work on the emblems. They turned out great.
The center of the bowties on my 67 were painted blue to match the truck when it was repainted by a PO.

Re: Slick Copper's Build Thread
Got these in. Needed all of these. They were either missing, or dry rotted about to break off. I guess the PO when repainted removed them and never put them back. I'm sure there's more rubber I need, like the hood to cowl seal, but these seemed most important. Real good price, got them off Ebay for like $27 for the kit. Also got clear parking lenses on the way. I think they'll set the front off more. Can't wait to get them in. Also trying to get ole Copper back together (inner fenders on, emblems, etc) for a car show this Sunday. Don't expect to win anything, just go hang out, meet some new truck guys hopefully!
