Wiring and shifter on a 1968 GMC

Hello guys, we have a problem with the lights on the truck. The fuse would blow when ever we turned on the headlights and the wire was S*** so we bough brand new wires things that would help. But it has not helped. The tail lights will not work for some reason, need help guys what to do?


Also, the shifter is stuck in gear.... what to do with that?

Sounds like you need to adjust the shifter. Is it a 3 speed manual?

If so here is a great write up on how to adjust it.

And it works!
