Welcome from New Hampshaa!
Wrecking / salvage yard would be your best bet.
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

If your going for a race look I have a Willwood pedal assembly and master and slave cylinder on my PRO 4 race truck. It would take some modifying but would look pretty tough on a street truck. They make a triple master cyl. all in one mount set up, two for the brake system with a built in brake bias adjuster and one for the clutch set up.

Or for a stock look you can go to the bone yards in your area. Make sure they're not all worn out.


Oh yeah, I almost forgot,,,,, WELCOME from Dayton Ohio!!!!!!!!!

well thanks guys!

and i lost all my tools about 2 years ago when i moved. so i am pretty much tryin to convert it without modifying stuff. but if you could post some pics i could check it out and it may be worth the hassle!

and there is not a boneyard with a 85-87 chevy manual truck within 100 miles radius here!
