need a gas pedal for my 57 ford custom :icon_bigsmurf: :unitedstates:
Are you talking about the pedal linkage or just the rubber pedal itself? If just the pedal, Dennic Carpenter has them in his catalog for about 15 bucks.
There are two different pedals used on 57. Only one is available as a repo and I've never seen the one as used on mine anywhere. They are not interchangeable. And only one part # is listed. I had a post a while back explaining how to modify the available pedal. Can't remember the title.
Thomasso is correct on the 2 different pedals. We've had several threads in the past on the two different pedals. I remember being involved in one of the threads, but I'm not sure why, as I've never even attempted to install an oem pedal or linkage.The one I was involved in had pics showing the two pedals with their matching linkage. One is a spoon type and one is a pin type.
Get a 1966 Fairlane gas pedal. You have to bend the spring a little that goes with the pedal but you keep a clean floor that way.
There is an NOS pedal on ebay. Wonder what style it is? No pictures of the backside.
You may have to find the other style of pedal arm, cut, & weld so that you can use the more common style of pedal in the future.
guys, it is MUCH easier than you all would think !
Using an old NORS 58 style pedal I used a little rolled pin and small tubing for a roller, it slips right into the 58 style pedal andwill roll inside the elongated slot of the og 57 pedal linkage lever. I did file a bit and put a little chamfer on the elongated opening and you will have to slightly adjust position of the pedal, so to take UTMOST CARE that the pedal doesn't bind at full throttle. once that is sorted, it's straight forward and bolt in !
Guenter told me about that last year and I did what he did. It solved the problem.
