Anybody got any good pics of Escort Ect ( downward facing ) pedal box fitting in their archive?

Sierra pedal box and MC - just remove the servo and rebolt together

So you reckon no need for servo?
RD
Definately no servo, remember your car will be less than half the weight of the original donor
I want to see some pedal box pics too, so I'm bumping this thread back to the top!
I got the pedal assembly from a Ford 100E, whcih is what Lotus used, but I'm not sure that it's the best solution for my project.
ah, thats interesting - I take it you mean Lotus used them for the 7? if so is that just the pedal pedals or the whole assembly?
Yes. It is my understanding that at least the earlier Lotus 7 used the cast aluminium bracket (and master cylinders) from a Ford Anglia/Prefect 100E.
Lotus used the bracket upside down and either legnthened the pedals or manfactured new ones to suit.
Now I'm buggered if I can find any pictures to verify my claim. Can anyone help me out? I read about it in the Anthony Weale "Lotus Seven:
Preparation, Restoration and Maintenance " book.
