So I purchased a 1959 apache inline 6 tonight. I noticed that the gas pedal is roached and only the pin is coming from the firewall. Looks like the pedal assembly to the floor is also corroded and needs to be replaced. Does anyone have a decent picture of the setup where the gas pedal mounts to the driver side floorboard? Also does anybody knowwhere you can purchase a replacement part, OEM, repro, or aftermarket. Just need something to make it go vroooom but prefer something originalish looks.

Thanks!

the rod comes thru a hole in firewall and plugs in to a hole in top back of pedal. the bottom of pedal has screws to floor board. not a good time for me to take a picture. The shop manual shows it , you maybe able to find it here in tech.

There are two different setups. 6 cyl and V8. The V8 is available. The ball, as said, snaps into the back of the pedal. You can adapt a V8 setup to a six. Depending are what carb you have. It's basically just a bell crank attached to floor. Maybe repair/modify what you have. It's just rods bent to suit.

Thanks guys, I will check wit Jim's and see if it has the connector plate to the floorboard, most of what I have found is the pedal unit alone.

Thanks again.
