Fairlane/Falcon/Galaxie/Gran TorinoThere 1960s classics have not been forgetten, whether it is on the dragstrip or at any car show, they are still all well represented.
Just finishing a nut and bolt restoration and hit this snag. Somehow...I no longer have the kickdown rod for the car anymore to reinstall...its literally one of the final pieces! The kickdown rod on my car is kind of s shaped and has a pivot point attached to it that mounts to the upper part of the transmission. The rod then slips behind or in front of a plate attached to the accelerator pedal that is mounted to the firewall. It DOES NOT connect to the carb. Any help on leads for one of these would be amazing as I would really like to have it stock and not some crappy aftermarket kit. I would rather go without one than that.
Thanks for your consideration ...and kickdown galore website cannot help me! And it IS going to a VERY GOOD HOME!
The only rods I recall went from the arm on the carb down to the arm on the side of the trans.
As the throttle was floored it pulled the arm on the trans forward..
