Accelerator pedal interchange?

Yeh James, I have a REALLY HEAVY foot!  LOL!  As we say here in the south, "I plum wore it out!"  The truth is, it is just not up to par with the rest of the car since it has undergone such a total restoration.  A new one would really look nice instead of mine which has some worn edges and a 'thin spot' worn somewhere on the pedal's rubber pad.  My car must have been really driven hard by someone to wear that spot on the pedal!  Just hoped a new one would have turned up by now on eBay!

Ya gotta admire a man who wears out his gas pedal!  I'm picturing a 1965 Imperial going down the streets with the tires squealing, hehe.  Perhaps you should consider a more modern gas pedal.  It might be safer that way, and might also be more readily available.  ( <-- humour)

Does anyone know if an accelerator pedal for a '64 is also the correct one for a '65 Imperial?  The part number is 2406175.  My restoration shop has my parts manual therefore I can't look this up myself.  My pedal is worn out and I need another but don't want to buy the wrong one! 

 

Thanks!
