RE: [T3] Accelerator Pedal


Oh the tab came off the pan, and so did some of the pan ;-)
The tab on the accelerator pedal was still intact though and I think I will
remount it with small bolts.  I got the whole cluster apart, unseized the
brake pedal and sandblasted and powdercoated the whole thing, its back
together now and all greased up.

Now I can put my foot into the accelerator without fear of it going thru the
floor!  Oh... but I need to get some 93 octane gas first....

It's an early car thing.  My '65 Bug was the same way, and all the 
early T3's
(63-65) where I've bothered to look at the pedals were like that too.

You can always take the tab off the pan and use a late pedal cluster &
accelerator cable  IMO, it's a better design anyway...
