| Gary, I too had thought about making them. But it was pointed out that the liability in this society is a bit steep. SO if you do print in bold on the reciept.."For display purposes only" this is the CYA trend for most home
engineered bits. thanks to our lovely litigious society.

If you have someone who can fabricate the tubular subframes or if you can do it yourself ,you can space the mounting tabs to accept any commercially made board you want to use. The sub frames could be made from a combination of steel tube and flat stock properly welded and metal finished you couldn't tell them apart from originals. If you don't have a pair for a model I can measure up a pair of mine and send you some drawings to help in fabrication. I have been thinking about makung a couple dozen sets of these over winter. Of course you will still need control levers and they could also be made from weldments ,provide you use a CAPABLE weldor. You can use the stock brake lever,it will work. Again some good metal detailing and chrome plating will get you a good pedal . The rest of the linkage should be pretty straightfoward . Foot boards are very easy to like ,it sure is hard for most folks to go back to pegs ! :-) andy hill wrote:

I have pegs on my Eldorado and am thinking about some some floorboards.
I have seen the original police MG and HD examples and would like to know how they compare. Any problems fitting HD type? Suggestions to cheap alternatives?
Thanks
Todd
