Dave when I did mine (76) the only extras I needed were the copper 
bushings on the lever pin. The pin goes on the outside, but on the 
inside where the lever pivot goes in the bellhousing, the bushings were 
shot. I got ones of the same inside and outside diameters at an 
autoparts store. They are in fact the ones for (chevy?) door pins. 
Slightly different length, but that was not what mattered. No seals or 
gaskets needed as it's a dry area.
