[Healeys] RHD Healey 100

[bluechip]

Thanks, Patrick.  Maybe I'll spring for a pair of Moreschi 
Civates...Crocodile for the refined man.  Only $1195.00!   On second 
thought, I suppose $10.95 US Keds will do.

Thanks for the info.

G'day Jim

In my car the pedal arrangement is the same as the 100 except that the space 
within the footwell is narrower to accommodate the six-cylinder engine and 
gearbox. The narrower part is between the clutch and the engine bulkhead.

However the space between the brake and right hand bulkhead is the same as a 
standard 100.

I wear size 8 = shoes and even with my relatively small feet I have to make 
sure that I wear narrow shoes.

If you get a chance have a look at a pair of motor racing shoes and note how 
narrow they are.

Here's a question for the Brits and Aussies:   Are all the RHD Healey 
Hundreds
short of foot room between the brake pedal and the kick panel?  Maybe its 
just
my size13s but I have a hard time reaching the accellerator without scraping
the brake pedal.  Very annoying.
