65 pedals
« on: March 07, 2018, 09:25:19 PM »
Removed my pedal assembly to replace the plastic pieces and clean it up. It had never been touched before. The MCA rules state that the upper portion should be natural. Mine are all black. If this will actually be a deduction can I get clarification how much of the clutch and brake pedals are black and how much is natural? I photo would be helpful.

Its about 2/3rd painted verses 1/3rd natural. Basically equal to the bottom edge of the dash when hanging down or pressed on or more painted.

Most likely dipped like A arms

That is a good pic. It was also a good pic of the heater box. I've got an original defrost plenum that I will be asking about how to get it looking like his. It's in great shape but looking its age. I don't want to try just anything on it and actually ruin it's potential.
