>     I need to add an extension to the foot plate on the clutch pedal of
my 
TR-3A; i.e., I need some way to move the foot plate about two inches closer

to my foot.  (I have a lower back problem that is aggravated by extending 
my leg as far as is now required.)  I could move the seat forward, but the 
steering wheel is way too close even with the seat fully back.  (Did they 
design these things for people with five foot legs and 18 inch arms?)
    I've wracked my brain for a simple non-invasive design for the 
extension, but have not come up with anything satisfactory.  Thought I'd 
ask if anyone has worked this problem, found a source for such or an idea 
for a simple design that I could build.

John, look up in the yellow pages for a place that does conversions for the
handicapped.  Foot pedal extensions are pretty routine for them.
