Throttle Pedal Lever
I am working on the next phase of my project, a correct throttle pedal and linkage. The pedal is a weldment of strap iron onto a 1/2" dia tube. That pedal/shaft assy appears to slip into another tube "welded" to the housing bracket. There is no visible means of it bolting into the bracket. But this is a very unusual way of assemblying items - normally pivoting stuff gets bolted or clipped together, not welded.
Has anyone torn into one of these and can you describe how the pivot joint is put together?
In my mind, it appears there is about a 3/4" tube welded to the bracket, then the lever shaft is slipped into it and the lever end then welded onto the shaft. Not very user friendly if you needed to disassemble.
Can anyone add more info or close up photos of the joint
Thanks
Paul

Thanks for offer
CSX700,
Thanks for your offer but I am into the research and building. It does appear there is interest from someone else
Would you mind sharing some photos or comments on how the pivot is done
thanks

That would be great. It is really difficult to come up with details on the original cars when you don't have one close you can look at. Help from people like you is what makes this hobby/sport enjoyable.
I am anxious to see what you have

Anxiously Waiting
CSX700,
Don't want to be a PIA but this is the closest I've gotten to someone being willing to show pictures of the bracket and how the pedal works in it.
Have you had any luck with the pictures?

Problems Posting
CSX700,
We see you're trying to post a number of pictures. A couple items:
1) The links aren't working, we are only getting the "Red X" broken link sign on this end. If it's helpful, this is a link to Ron's thread on posting images: Posting Thread
2) in case you have larger images than what is allowed to be posted, may I ask for a copy of your photo files for my research project. The full resolution will help me with clear enlargements. You can send them directly to my address at paul@proefrock.net
Thanks, so much for your help
Paul

Too Soon?
CSX700,
I browsed your gallery (You've got some neat pictures there) but didn't see the throttle pedal pictures.
Did I flip thru there too soon?
