It has the original 4 speed manual transmission, chevy 235 inline 6, original bell housing, and I just bought a new 1 1/16inch bore slave cylinder for it. If it would be easier, I can go back and get a 1inch slave cylinder. Please and thank you.

They are strond & threaded all the way. We can get one from a salvage but it will be a week before we get back to the yard. They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing. 1972 Chevy c10 Cheyenne Super In the Gallery Forum

The slave cylinder isnt threaded either. It's a concave cone http://www.stovebolt.com/gallery/mantz_hunter_1961.html http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3812511/1961-chevrolet-apache
