Hey all,
Looking for a used condition original and complete Paddy Hopkirk pedal and bracket, etc.
Let me know what you’ve got, I know they come up semi-frequently in the usual places but I keep missing them owing to the fact that I’m from the future here in Brisbane!
Happy to post to my family home in the U.K., cheers in advance!

The modern ones are a pretty good casting, with a sandblast to soften the edges and some flat head screws you’d barely tell the difference

Heya mate, thanks for the heads up. I did take a look at these, and you’re right they are definitely crisp!
I’m sure it would wear well and it’s a really solid option to fall back on, but hoping there’s a nice used one sitting somewhere gathering dust…
Half the fun with these minis is the thrill of finding the parts you need, haha!

I have a drawer of pedal extensions both brake, clutch and gas. Digging around for a RHD accelerator pedal for Blue I found a old black rubber/plastic Speedwell extension. I was surprised at the number of pedals I have. Steve (CTR)

Nice work, I don’t believe I’ve seen the type of extension that you have mentioned before! Enjoy your digging, it’s great fun finding these things after being tucked away for years…
