Can one assume that because it has the pedal dress up trim that it is for a power brake setup?
I have no use for that thing but I want it. LOL.
Good score Brian.

Nope it's for a manual brake car. For some reason C-bodies had two 4 speed pedal assemblies...one for Manual, and one for power brakes.

I think the pedal dress up was used on all the slab C-bodies from the Fury III on up.

I have a set that needs both foot pads, I'm guessing by the condition of the set that you pictured, finding a decent pair is not going to happen.

How do you determine the difference from the manual set vs the power?

I read it's because the throw for the brake is different. Therefor the mounting location for the push rod is in a different position. I have no idea how accurate the story is and make no claims it is.

I bought a vintage typewriter for the same reason yesterday

How did the 4-speeds look installed in the early C-bodies? Straight from the floor with no center console or was there a unique console for the 4-speed? I would love to have a 4-speed but I really like my center console, plus I have power brakes so this set up wouldn’t work anyway.

Thats probably a good price too

This is the best I have access to right now of the non-console. There was a console available as well I believe.

Another one that likes to show off

Nice set up. That look like one fun car to drive. I guess I know what I would like for my next C-body. How rare is a 4-speed in an early C-body? Yours is the only one I have ever seen and do the guys that own them ever sell them?

...and do the guys that own them ever sell them?

Yes and they regret it for the rest of their life.

Just put in the clutch pedal and the shift knob.

That is nice. Must be cool cruising with the top down and shifting.........

I forgot to ask earlier.
How did you ID it as a manual brake assembly?
