Well I started cutting tonight, I have bits of an old bulkhead I'm using for bits, so I've fitted the pedal holder very roughly and removed the front panel work to give foot room and to place the pedals in the correct place

Still a lot of cutting and tweaking to do yet (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

It's looking like I managed to get the measurements right ! The end of the pedal rods mounts on the old LHD pedal mount !

Gadzooks! You have your work cut out for you, Nutter. Do those shafts use some carrier or intermediate bearings? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
EDIT: I'd like to see some close ups of that pedal assm and/or it's individual parts when you rebuilt it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

It's a complete setup from a RHD 911 so yes everything has bearings and is mounted as the factory does, this is the fairly straight forward bit, I still need to move all the corresponding bits for the hand brake (e-brake) and there's some modification to stop the steering shafts rubbing on the sheet metal .

Hi guys and girls sorry for the lack of updates to say November was a kick in the teeth would be an understatement !

We had a visit from creeper burglars who stole all the keys for my Businesses , my wife's car and my pick up which they also took and to top it all my iPad and oakleys, they then took it for a trip to Dublin and I've been caught for the tole roads and then it was found like this

So my wife has been very upset as there was scumbags downstairs as we slept upstairs, I've been busy upgrading lights and gates and my rifle is now under the bed !

Work will resume shortly !

Looks like a big job, but one well worth it in the end.

Will be eagerly following this to see how you get everything done.
In some ways i am grateful mine was already RHD when I bought her (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Cheers
