Re: pedal question

There should be two ball studs screwed in the floor that the pedal snaps onto.

Re: pedal question

Are the floor studs still there?

It is a little work but I have cut the pedal and welded on the 71-72 style gas pedal which was cut to fit.

Re: pedal question

The floor studs on my truck are gone too. There were nothing but little rusty nubs.

Re: pedal question

The studs might me covered with carpet. You can get a new pedal from LMC for about $10.

Re: pedal question

You can get the new pedal(and usually the studs) from a friendly local BB vendor and help support those who support our hobby instaed of supporting semi-computer literate sales geeks.
