Hey Pete!

Did you get the pedals figured out on your 64?

I think so. A bracket was broken off and I need to fab one (can't buy the damn thing). I don't have any metal working tools so I'll be winging it.

I've been sicker than hell this last week with a runaway respiratory infection so not much work getting done (on the car or anywhere else). I actually slept 20+ hours Saturday and Sunday.

Back on my feet today. Full of piss, vinegar and antibiotics.

I guess you didn't want to invest in that nearly new one that the guy has? I think it was 150?
Good to hear you're on the mend. Health comes first. We sure don't need any more bad news around here......

I missed that - I'm surprised someone had it. Money is pretty tight right now and I'm not in a hurry - I have so much other stuff to do on the car. But I'll follow up on that.

Edit: someone beat me to it.

Very nice moment in time. Thanks Pete.

Glad you're on the mend again. I've been working on a few TX pals I do business with, and are music nuts, to stop in for the next Austin Blues show.

Thanks! Tell them to consider sponsoring it. We really need the support and sponsorships are cheap.

That would be great and a big part of the motivation to come see the jam. They are a TX, family run company.

I told my buddy what you're doing to bring some great music talent together and actually see all walk out "in the black" for a change.

Send me the info.
Scott

Thanks! Will do. I'm a little behind so I hope to send the packet later today. Truth be told, I need to sleep right now.

Wow - thank you so much. Here's a picture - it looks like a piece of heavy gauge angle iron - 1" wide and about 2.75 inches high. That square hole is beyond my comprehension...

I have a few questions out to make sure, but it looks simple enough. I'm certainly an amateur compared to what you can do

If its made of metal I can make it. I need either the part, or all the dimensions.
