Firewall mounted brake and clutch pedals.

I used the following materials to create the various pieces.

0.020” Evergreen sheet styrene
0.040” Evergreen sheet styrene
0.080” Evergreen sheet styrene
0.035” Evergreen styrene rod
0.047” Evergreen styrene rod
0.062” Evergreen styrene rod
1/8” o.d., 0.062” i.d. Evergreen styrene tubing
0.060” Plastruct styrene hex rod
0.080” Plastruct styrene hex rod

Here are the dimension of the main parts. In addition to these, I also cut the following parts:
1 - triangle of 0.080” styrene to connect the brake fluid reservoir to the assembly.
1 - 1/4” long piece of 1/8” tubing with a groove filed lengthwise.
1 – 9/32” long piece of 1/8” tubing with a groove filed lengthwise.
2 – 1/16” long pieces of 1/8” tubing
1 – 5/32” long piece of 1/8” tubing
1 – piece of 0.047” rod with ends flattened and drilled 0.037” long enough to connect the brake pedal to the right angle bracket.
1 – piece of 0.062” rod with one end flattened and drilled 0.037” long enough to connect to the other end of the right angle bracket and go into the brake fluid reservoir.
3 – lengths of 0.035” rod long enough to make bolts with slices of 0.060” hex rod drilled at 0.037” used as nuts and bolt heads.
2 – lengths of 0.062” rod long enough to make the pivot rods for the pedals and the right angle bracket with slices of 0.080 hex rod drilled at 0.062” for nuts.

Here are some pictures of the assembled pieces to show how it goes together. I have not put the nuts on any of the bolts yet in the pictures.

Here is what it looks like on the firewall.
