Redhawk,
Lets start by getting specific with the problems. Here's what I think I see:
  1. The throttle cable was apparently too short so someone made a connector for an additional length of cable (out of a lead fishing weight?)
  2. The throttle cable housing takes a very long and circuitous route to get from the carburetor to the footbox
  3. The original gas pedal was either not working, removed but not replaced, or unsightly and deserving of replacement. Which is it?
