Cool or not cool:
60s vintage barefoot gas pedals

 

[brchopper]

cool!

I use to have a '65 chevy van with a bare foot gas pedal that I always drove around barefoot. I dont think I was ever cooler.

Depends on what you're putting them in. Old car or truck (rat), looks cool. Something newer or high dollar, not cool!...just my 2¢…………CR

I have one,use it daily,also have a 'left' foot, smaller one for my headlight dimmer.

 

[Got Rust?]

I 'v had both gas, and dimmer, I like em on pre 70's stuff (American only)
Also may be a good idea for your Toyota Prius, ain't gonna hurt.[ddev

I've had one since the early 70's.

Yeah, those are kinda the guys I remember having them but not on that cool of car, usually on a 4 door Dodge with foot long shackles,lol. I think the 60s van they would be right in style.
I have had one on a shelf for years, get tempted to use it then don't. It's about time for the gas pedal in my rpu and I'm going hmmm when I see the barefoot, but this little "uncool" red flag keeps popping up in my head. I might go for a vintage Eelco gasser pedal or make one, haven't decided yet. The barefoot is still in contention. thanks

Not my cup O' tea, but they do have their place.

 

[Bonehead]

I have one, and everyone knows I am like, super cool.

If I would have had a moon pedal I would have run that instead.

 

[Sam_Fear]

It would be perfect in that van.

 

[kelseydum]

I bet you could weld up a "skeleton foot" pedal. That would probably look a lot cooler!

 

[BigIrish]

I think they are a little cartoonish and out of place in a mean looking rat rod/hot rod.

That's it! Cartoonish - perfect description. Or almost a parody of itself.

 

[Gastrick]

I like them.....and usually use what I like whether I think it will be cool or not.

 

[sgtpontiac]

They look cool in somethings.....

but not in everything.... saw one in a Lincoln Navigator... I'm not sure why it was put in there but didn't go with the leather motif'...[S

 

[toledo]
