Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Last one looks to be upright to begin with so I'll leave it that way.

I love the color coded fuses.

Those welds were very typical, this one is not nearly that bad.....I have seen my share of terrible weld jobs on clutch pedals.
You may find what you need at NOCC.....or starting calling those that can bring you a pedal to you to NOCC.

Thanks John Brown for flipping my pics :-)

Jason: I didn't know fuses came colour coded? Are they original GM?

Dan: I like the weld quality, my comment was that someone used Stainless rod, it is much easier to use and the slag jumps off after a pass:-)

The pedal looks fine, but that extra piece will need to be ground off and put in the never throw away box:-) I may need a sample to copy to put it back to stock....

yes, original fuses were color coded.

Are you sure that clutch pedal hasn't been modified and re-welded?

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

I looked at the Assembly manual and to me it looks like there is an extra 90 degree piece and a support piece on the side. I can see the hole the clutch linkage used to go into..... Not sure but so far looks like additions only. Even if some of it were cut away I will repair the pedal. (Need somebody's sample to study)

In the manual it calls out a special part number for the bumper above the clutch pedal for a W31, can't wait to see if this is accurate.

I got a note that my distributor is rebuilt and soon will have the Crane XRi electronic conversion including PN20 coil (looks stock) and I was very surprised my carb is also rebuilt.

Dan sent pictures, it looks so cool, like a survivor carb:-) No surfaces were restored, only rebuilt.

I plan to use a mix or original and restored pieces under the hood. For example the ex manifolds will be coated with the Eastwood product, but the passenger side heat shield will be cleaned in Evaporust and used as original.
