WE ARE CALLING THE LAST PEDAL SETUP A LEARNING EXPERIENCE......
Looks like we are calling this one a learning experience...... :D
Besides the brake pedal, I'm going to be changing the gas pedal. I have decided to change out the carb setup from the duel stock carbs, to a 40mm DCOE Weber. I will be placing it between the head, with the air filter to the front. Giving it more of the Morgan 3 wheeler look.

PEDAL ASSEMBLY IS FINISHED
Today I finished the pedal assembly, And I happy with it. $40 or less, vs $300 -$400 for a store bought setup. I would rather make something, rather than buy it. unless there are other factors involved.

MORGAN PEDAL ASSEMBLY COMING ALONG
I started working on the pedal assembly. The base is 8" x 11". as well as the backing plate. The master cylinder is a 72 VW Beetle. The clutch is a straight cable setup. The gas on the other hand is a rocker two cable setup, one on the top of the pedal, and one on the bottom of the pedal. This is in association with the linkage setup for my dual carbs.

REAR WHEEL WELL, STEERING COLUMN AND DASH SUPPORT FRAMED IN.
After finishing the drive train, I moved on to the rear wheel well area, followed by the steering column and dash support framework.The cowl will be removable for easy access. Next I will be moving forward with the peddle assembly. But I need to make a modification to the throttle body linkage first.

Drive train coming along great
Now that the motor and tranny are secure, Swing arm mounted, it was time to connect things up. So I mounted the Nova Racing reverse gearbox, and fitted the driveshafts. One drive shaft needed a new tube, to achieve the proper length. The frame needed some redesigning for proper clearance before mounting the pillow block bearing.

SWING ARM MOUNTED
Got the swing arm mounted this evening. Had to determine the true center lines first. Removed the swing arm cradle from the frame, removed all excess material, and welded it to my swing arm support frames. Then finished welding remaining tubing before mounting. Next I will be working on the drive shafts connecting the motor/tranny to the reverse gearbox to the swing arm.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME..........
