Another Vintage Gas Pedal, Possibly From 1940s International Harvester Truck on 2040-parts.com
Greenport, New York, US
This appears to be an original 1940s gas or accelerator pedal, the second pedal found in a
garage along with parts that were identified as being from a mid to
late 1940s D-Series International Harvester truck, though it cannot be
confirmed that it also came from that truck.
The pedal appears to be structurally sound though it has considerable rust, is very dirty and shows wear.
The pedal measures 7 3/4 by 2 inches and is extremely thin - please note its thickness against the pencil in the photos.
Please examine the photos carefully as that is the best way to understand the condition of this vintage pedal.

A new batch of Ford Mustang Cobra Jets is on the way to racers
Wed, 17 Jun 2009The 40th Anniversary 2008 Mustang Cobra Jet, announced about a year ago, has been such a huge success for Ford Racing that the company will build a 2010 model, available later this year. Like the '08 CJ, just 50 examples of the turnkey race car will be built, the minimum number to homologate the car for competition in National Hot Rod Association events. An '08 Cobra Jet won its inaugural event in the Stock Eliminator Class in February at the NHRA Winternationals in Pomona, Calif., just as the original 1968 Cobra Jet did.
Toyota GT86 gets 325bhp from Gazoo Racing – again
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Toyota’s renegade Gazoo Racing are teasing another Toyota GT86 with 325bhp – the GRMN FR Sports Concept Platinum – for the Tokyo Auto Salon. There’s been a lot of speculation surrounding the Toyoya GT 86 (and the Subarua BRZ too) and the likelihood that it will get forced induction at some point to offer a chunk more power than its standard 197bhp. It’s always seemed likely that Toyota and Subaru would add a supercharger or turbo (or both) to their cars to give a properly powerful option.
