Sins my car was an automatic i had to install a clutch pedal.

Measuring the right height and position of the clutch pedal.


Cutting out the holes for the pedal bracket.

For the first time in 18.years my car has a clutch pedal :D

Engine is in.

Looks good.

Good work, I'm interested to see how you handle the rear end.

Looking forward to doing something similar in summer. Any update on how the rear-end was fitted etc? Got a good idea on how I should handle my future projects. Thanks for inspiration and motivation for my next project.
