Hello everyone,
I’m new to the Austin 7 , just purchased a special with an interesting story, far as I can tell ,it’s 1938 chassis with a modified 1934 engine and 4 speed gearbox.
The car has been on a serious set of adventures including route 66 in the US .
Anyway, I’m guessing the chap that drove all those miles had small feet!
I’m struggling to fit my size 10’s in the space available, it’s hard not to press the brake when pressing the
throttle .
My question is: has anyone had experience of cutting and re welding the clutch and brake pedal on a 7 ?
the pedals look to be steel or wrought iron. I’m hoping to move the two pedals over towards the centre of the vehicle by a couple of inches each . Any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks.
