Guest Mochet Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Seeking an exhaust cutout pedal to adapt for my 1913 Metz. Base screws to floorboard. The small iron pedal is a simple lever. Various types would work. Let me know if you have anything that might suit!Phil Jamison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mochet Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Thanks for the replies. However, I need a simpler pedal than the Ford T used. It just pushes down and has no locking feature. Also, Restoration Supply has an exhaust cut-out, but doesn't sell the pedal. I suggested that they might consider making one. Here's an example:Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdome Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I am having a couple of early pedals cast but they won't be ready until sometime January. Would this type work for you? It mounts to the underside of the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Walkup Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Does this lock in the open position, or do you have to hold it down? I am also looking for a quality cut out pedal that will lock open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdome Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 It does not lock open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 In addition to pedals there was a hand pull for cutouts and whistles. Here is one. It is made to pull a wire and goes " over center" to latch on. $30 +postage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mochet Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) Here is a photo of whet the Metz pedal looked like (right side). It's not a locking-type pedal. In fact, the Metz catalog indicates it can be used 'to warn oncoming traffic of your approach.' Your repro might work, Layden.Phil Edited December 6, 2011 by Mochet (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Original from the teens, NOT a reproduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mochet Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Sorry. I thought you were casting the pedal. I'd be interested in the original pedal, if you'd care to sell it. Feel free to send me an email or PM.Phil Jamison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Saxton Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 (edited) Does this lock in the open position, or do you have to hold it down? I am also looking for a quality cut out pedal that will lock open.I have sample of two different types that I could photograph and measure for you, and would not be difficult to make. The Petry one as used on Mercer is of flat steel sock largely, except that the round button is pressed into a negative curvature. The one on the Roamer Duesenberg is cast iron pieces. (I reckon that the Roamer sounds better than a Bentley with the cutout open and the throttle open).
