Need Help ASAP
Background Info 67 C10 inline 6, 3-on-the-tree Bought my 67 C10 in Surrey B.C. I live in Winnipeg, Mb.! Sea-rail Canada will move the truck, door to door, which has already been payed for. I thank My wonderful uncle Don has been taking care of the truck and getting it ready for shipping. Truck was moved by flat bed truck to sea-rail terminal in Surrey. It is believed (not sure) that the truck was in gear as it was hoisted up the incline ramp on to the flat bed truck. The truck ran, as my uncle drove it from guy I bought it from's house to a storage facility (just has bad breaks). Now Sea-rail (lying bastards) told me twice that the truck had made it on the train to Winnipeg. Well the truck is still sitting in their terminal beacuse they couldn't get it started. Usually when the vehicle doesn't run Sea-rail hoist the car on to the train car but the box of the truck, which has a cap on it, is fully loaded with parts My wonderful uncle, who has some vehicle knowledge, (hope that doesn't offend him) took a day off work and went to the terminal to get the truck running. He brought with him gas for the tank and a little bottle for the carb. Again those idiots at Sea-Rail left the keys in the ignition and drained the battery. With no help from any Sea-rail bastards he gets it boosted and running. Now the only thing from getting the truck on the train is that there is now something wrong with the tranny or something, possibly from when the truck dragged up the flatbed truck. My uncle said that the truck shifts into reverse and 1st but no neutral, it sticks! This is where my uncle's mechanical knowledge is lost. Any Help Would Be Great!! Thank You Guys and Gals A Frustrated JHickson6 ![]() |

Might try popping the hood and looking at the shift rods where they attach to the column. Sometimes they get bound up and can be worked loose.
Something to try anyway. SC

three on the tree shifters are notorious for jamming, especially old sloppy ones which is probably the problem with yours.... you can open the hood and move the shift rods manually to get it loosened up, I used to have to do this regularly.... should not be a big problem to get it into neutral, just make sure the park brake is on or you have a brick under one of the tires....
