Restoration of the pedal unit

The pedal unit was complete but badly corroded ( [link] ). It was decided to disassemble the unit, clean and powder coat all the components. After media blasting the individual components were powder coated by Custom Coatings. [link] and [link] show the various components after powder coating.

Since the clutch and brake pedals rotate on the shafts of the pedal unit it is important to mask not only the shafts on the bracket (see [link] ), but also inside of the pivot holes in the pedals (see [link] ). In a similar manner, the throttle pedal pivots on a bolt (see [link] ); the inside of the pivot hole must be masked during powder coating. The final assembled pedal unit is shown in [link] .
