does anybody out there have a picture of the back side of the gas pedal for the V-8, I have one ,but it looks like there is something missing on the back side that rubs against the arm that controls the linckage. Post a photo please.
Thanks
Tom

A few members have had them for sale, try hitting the for sale forums and use the search function in the upper right, decent photos in them IIRC.

You're probably missing the white nylon pad at the top of the back of the pedal, which is supposed to provide a low-friction surface for the sort of back-of-a-spoon shaped lever to ride on. When I still had a car with this pedal, I would've used this to replace the missing nylon pad. The less expensive "with minor scuffs" one is fine.

Yahbut, then you gotta go to Ikea, and then you'll be tempted to buy MÏTBØL, a pack of 48 little spheres of compressed sawdust with a thin veneer of meat you apply by yourself at home. LOL
