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.

Fri, 18 Dec 2009By Tim Pollard Motor Industry 18 December 2009 20:33 It's a sad day for Saabphiles, as GM announced – one week to the day before Christmas – that it has failed to find a buyer for Saab. It will begin winding down the Saab operation immediately. There had been a glimmer hope for Saab earlier this month, as supercar maker Spyker stepped in as a possible suitor after similarly small sports car specialist Koenigsegg walked away from a potential deal in November 2009.But GM admitted it could not viably sell Saab to Spyker – and no other bidders were forthcoming.
