Or, if you don't want to fab something, and want to stay in the family,
look for a big healey brake pedal, it bolts to the top rod that the accel
uses, and makes for a really nice heel+toe position. I've had this on all
my Mk II's, the race car, and will be converting my bugeye to it soon, as
the rubber on the stock pedal is ripping off now.
