More foot room!

Well I have been complaining about the leg room in my 70 Low Buck truck so I finaly did somthing about it! First I got rid of the stock pillow back seat in favor of a 60/40 split bench out of a 93 1500. This gave about 2" more room as well as flip forward back and shoulder belts with a few more mods. See pics here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=269662

For the gas pedal I just bent the rod a bit. I had about 1" when I was at WOT so I bent it to give me about 7/8" of that extra room. Then for the brake pedal I had about 4" of room so I took 2" of that. I do not recomend cutting and welding the brake pedal uness you know just what you are doing. I will add pics but not info because it should be left to a certified welder that has experance in pedal fabrication. This is not a mod you want to fail while you are driving!!

Paint is drying right now so I will post a finished installed pic in a few minutes once it is all back in place.
