G’day,
I was wondering if it’s possible to adjust the position of the clutch and break pedal as I am tall and it’s fairly uncomfortable to operate the clutch pedal in its present position any suggestions?
I've attached I diagram showing what I want to do.

What year model car is it,

The early pre 67 will have to be heated up to bend them as there a cast pedal

The later pedals are usuall pressed steel and can probally be bent using a lever.

both pedals should be that same distance or level together at the rubber pads. this is adjustable on the floor.

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

Pull the floor mats up and below the brake n clutch pedals on the floor you will see 2 x 13mm headed bolts

these are loosened and the pedals can be mooved or levered into position and the bolts re tightened

theres no pressure on the brake pedal so its a good idea to back of the clutch pedal adjustment at the gearbox end so you can moove the clutch pedal more easier.

Then re tighten every thing
