Need some help - not Lotus related - Unipower
Posted: Fri Nov 23, 2012 3:16 amIn addition to my +2S rebuild I am in putting the final touches on my 1967 Unipower GT. One problem I have is finding replacements for the brake and clutch pedal pads. I am in touch with several other owners and none of us can figure out what they are originally off of. One of my friends in the UK found a set that fit at a car show on a table of random unmarked items. The vendor did not know what car they came from.
I am in the US and have looked at a lot of cars over the years but have not found anything the right size. I know that Unipower got most of these types of parts off of other cars and so far all but the headlights originated in the UK. The pedals have a WATEX logo on the front and the name Waterford's on the rear. Several years ago I talked to people at a Waterford Rubber Co. in the UK but they were no help.
The pedals are 2" wide and 2 1/2 in tall. They are rubber and have lips that wrap around the pedal edges. I do not care if they match exactly as long as they fit.
Thanks for the help
