The gas pedal floor mount on my 1956 Coronet is rusted/falling apart and appears to be coming up when the pedal is pressed. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before it completely fails to hold the base of the pedal to the floor. Has anyone else had to deal with this? Should I seek an original equipment fix to this or remove the whole mechanism in favor of an aftermarket generic replacement?
