1947 Roadmaster linkage assembly for carb and other odds and ends

[jackofalltrades70]

I am looking for a complete linkage assembly from the accelerator pedal bracketry on the firewall to the carb on my Convertible. I am also needing the linkage for disengaging the clutch from the pivot to the throw-out fork. A nice battery tray would also be great. Thanks in advance for the help or if anyone knows of a salvage yard with a complete Roadmaster from 46-48 it would be great. Matt

Just need carb linkage and battery tray. I rebuilt the clutch linkage

I think I bought the battery tray. Waiting for it to arrive. Still need the linkage from the accelerator pedal to the carburetor. Thanks Matt

Matt,

The accelerator linkage you need will have to come from a '46 or '47. I have a complete linkage from a '48 that I was going to send you until I checked my parts book. It seems that the entire linkage was changed for 1948 when Buick revised the engine mountings. The linkage I have is in great condition but, unfortunately, it won't do you any good. Hope this helps you find the parts you need.

Thanks Mike. I realized this after I drove nearly 2 hours to look at a 48 RM. One of the linkage pivots was bolted to the manifold. It actually looks like a better design and more reliable. I will continue my search.
