Found a nice rust gathering place while trying to fix a wobbly gas pedal (bushing destroyed).

What are my best options here? I have a mig welder, never used it. I could buy a pice from restoration design, but I really only need a piece of metal for the pedal mount and possibly the assembly mount (1 stud broken). Does anyone sell like a 10x10 pedal assembly section?

Should I just use a flat piece of steel with two studs and weld in 2 nuts? Does anyone have a template?

I think for now, ill just try to extract the two rust bonded 10mm bolts out of the pedal mount and por 15 it. Them vise grips failed to remove onto the Drexel. Maybe heat?

To love a 914 is to love rust (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
