Hy Bornco, you could try going to a wrecking yard and seeing if the 1968 rod is longer, most rods have an adjustment feature built into them. You could try extending the one you have, but make sure you make it strong and re-enforce it so it can't bend/break, after all your life and the lives of those on the road around you depend on the integrity of your brake system!
