pfenlon Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) I am sometimes amazed at the cost of parts, some are a good buy and some seem OTT. The accelerator pedal is I think Very expensive, so It does pay to make your own when going LHD to RHD Mine cost me £30. But you must have a nice man who will loan you the correct new one to copy in the first place. NB I didn't need the cable attachment Bracket.

Stuart the pedal I had rebent was the original LHD pedal which didn't have a stop. Thanks for the tip, getting the plastic bushes in I remember from doing one ages ago was "Difficult" I used a heat gun on one this time and it was easy. But its simple to overheat the little devil! and end up with a plastic Quatermass. Edited July 31, 2017 by pfenlon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Coincidence or what??? I was about to post the question: “Can anyone supply me with the measurements of the RHD throttle bar” And then I see your post! It’s only a bit of bent rod, after all… As far as Quatermass is concerned, would that be “Quatermass1” or “Quatermass and the pit”. Both terrified me as a kid. Charlie D.
