I am beginning to wire my 57, and have become quite familiar with the Factory Assembly manual and wiring diagrams, but nowhere can I find any mention or drawing of a fuse block. I looked through several catalogs, and they all carry one, and their drawings all depict the same unit. When I stripped the truck 3 years ago, there were a few in-line fuses spliced in by POs, but no fuse block. I ordered one, but need to know where to put it. Intuition says to mount it just above the vent grille by my left foot, but is there a better place ???
Second question is about turn signals. I have the steering column from a 70 'burb in this truck. It came with the big curved plastic connector intact, but only the half connected to the column. Where can I buy the other half which feeds into the wiring harness ?? | | |

This piece of insulation gets popped out to allow the bracket on the fuse block to be screwed directly to the firewall. | | |

for the turn connector, might be able to find it from one of the wiring supply places, or even yer local GM dealer, but best to hit the wreckin yards and find the piece ya need and remove the wires and put it on your wires
