    In reference to this post:

    http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=18198

    Where I asked about getting a chrome gas pedal and it turned out to be an optical illusion ... I found one today at a car show swap meet ....

    It's from a 1969 Ford Galaxie and it seems it will mount right up ...

    Hey Jamie, I have one of those and a dimmer switch foot pedal. They are brand new. I will let you have them for $20.00.

    Let me know.
