The gas pedal trim was on back order, but the rest of the parts showed up today. While I was installing the new gas pedal I removed the silver mounting nuts on the firewall plate and replaced them with new flange nuts, topped with acorn nuts, all painted gloss black. I also painted the heads of new mounting bolts and washers for the firewall side. In gloss black they are much less noticeable than when wearing the gold color they started with.
Here are a couple of photos showing that 1971-72 brake and clutch pedal pads do indeed fit on the 60-66 pedals without modification.
The new clutch and brake pads were much more pliable than the 1960 versions installed back in 2005, and went on easily by comparison. The trim was a bit more difficult. To keep everything in alignment they were held it in place by 4 small squeeze clamps on the corners until the tabs were bent over.
That’s about it for now.
