Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Sep 2017 Posts: 19 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Sep 2017 Posts: 19 | 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.

The shop manual shows it , you maybe able to find it here in tech. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,983 Sir Searchalot | | Sir Searchalot Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,983 | 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.
Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. - William Penn | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy Bodie1204, welcome, Jim Carter Classic Truck Parts, has a 1958-59 accelerator pedal their p/n FL113, I won't quote a price as my catalog is too old, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2017 Posts: 19 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Sep 2017 Posts: 19 | 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.
