This is my first post here, so bear with me. I have a 55 custom royal that I am converting to a manual 5-spd transmission with a hydraulic clutch. Any advice on what clutch pedal assembly to go with to add a third pedal? I ordered a set for a 68 camaro that doesn't seem like it will work out without a lot of modification. It doesn't quite wrap around the steering colum like it should. Any advice on what would work aside from just fabbing something up from scratch? Thanks

David: Not sure where you are living but you will want to find a wrecking yard with old Mopars.

French Lake Auto Parts in Minnesota

Wild Cat Mopars in Oregon

Big M Auto Parts in California

I have dealt with all three with success in the past.

Good luck:

Thanks for the info and the diagram. I found a setup from a 55 DeSoto on ebay and it was exactly what I needed. I'm looking forward to getting this thing rolling! Thanks again!
