Hello there from Australia. I am so envious of you guys. What magnificent restorations. Just getting away from Body Numbers for the moment. One consequence of the Victory 6 going RH Drive was the fact that the all Metal Pedals were now on the same side as the Exhaust Pipe. They got SO hot you could NOT drive bare footed if you wanted to.
One good thing about having the accellerator pedal lower and in between the other two was that you could double de-clutch down into 2nd or First using your Left Foot on the Clutch and the toes or ball of your right foot on the brakes, while operating the accelerator with the right heel. I got pretty good at it coming into a corner at speed, braking into the corner, clutch, shift to Neutral, clutch out, rev up , clutch to neutral and into the lower gear, brake off and accellerate away. . Smooth with no grinding of gears. I still practice sometimes on my 91/92 Diesel HiLux,,[ Toyota Tacoma to you ]
