Early A Throttle Pedal Assy.
When I converted to cable throttle in my 63 Valiant, I couldn't use the 64-6 V8 A body throttle setup because the 63 has a different firewall and the firewall wiring junction was in the way. With very little modification - just a bit of trimming and drilling a hole or two - I installed a swing pedal setup from a later A body (71 Duster I think). But, to make it look original from above, I cut off the swing pedal and welded a spoon from a V8 64-6 A body to it, and used the 64-6 V8 floor pedal. Here's a couple of pix. First one shows the setup before I replaced the firewall pad and mostly covered it up, with the pedal bent back so you can see the welded on spoon; second one shows it with everything in place. Did it all by eyeball, just a matter of making sure you have full pedal travel and that the angles are correct. Hate a sideways looking pedal that I've seen in many a street rod.
