Hi Mickmate, how is it that you "drove right by" me ? I am in Petaluma, CA. I thought you were in New Hamshire somewhere. Are you out here somewhere now?
Original style pads on my arms sounds OK I guess but why not just the pads that were originally on whatever these turn out to be? Wouldn't that be easier?
And Jeff, as for the "Acton Customs": Sounds like a lot more work and changes to switch to something coming out of the floor than to something similar to what is there now (only in better shape and looking a lot better), unless it would not involve drilling or cutting through the floor somehow and switching all the other parts of the whole system.
One thing I think I must make clear to all of you whom might be interested in giving me a suggestion and some guidence about the pedals is that I am NOT concerned about the "authentic" look of anything because I am not interested in this car looking "authentic".
We bought the car for something fun and beautiful to play in and be in and drive on nice warm days. Neither my wife nor myself are into the "Authenticity" of the car or it's components. We simply like Cobras because we feel the lines and overall look of the car is extreemly beautiful and the performance of high HP to low weight makes it great fun to drive. We have no focus on having it look or be "authentic" beyond that.
So something reletively easy to have put in without major surgery or changes and something that works well is the goal. Whether or not whatever that is looks in any way authentic is not a concern to us.
I hope that does not offend anyone as I know that "authenticity" is one of the greatest goals for some Cobra owners/builders, but just not for us.
I'll go by the shop and get some pics of whats in there now and post them here later today. That will help a lot I think.
