all,
i am looking at trying to do something with our stock pedals (gas, brake, & e-brake) i am wondering what is available in the after market for the pedals that we have? most of what i see start for the '73 & up versions. are the 73-up pedals the same if not can these be "put on" the brackets??

any suggestions & or help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

The 72 gas pedals are not hinged at the floor like the 67-71's. What are you looking to do? Something like the 70's chrome barefoot pedals, billet or the like?

This is my setup, Ididit pedal pad for the brake and a complete pedal for the gas.

Yeah, I posted a similar question about 2- and 3-pedal kits a couple of months ago. Didn't get much helpful info. Wishing you the best of luck.

I'm sorry!! Those pedals are from Lokar. Mine are older models, check the site and I'm sure you can find something that will work.
The brake pedal pad is for a 55-57 chevy I think. I had to do some cutting to get it to fit correctly.

fastom,
thanks!! i am checking into those. i think that i might go with the assy for the gas pedal.

shifty,
thanks!! i will try to help you out as well. i think most of the guys on here are more into the deluxe orig, pedals. i like those as well, but the look i am going for is a little more "streeetrod"..

thanks!!!
