I got a LaBriola as fabbing stuff out of metal is not my thing. All you really need is a jockey lever, a clutch cable, a clutch pedal and a plate to mount the cable. On my setup the cable mount is a palte that goes between the floorboard and frame with a loop for the cable. fI'll get some pics tonight for you.

Talk to Rick LaBroila. A cool dude all the way around. Some people said if he said 3 weeks to not expect it for 6 weeks but that was not my experience. I would call once a week to find out what was going on and it arrived right when he said it would. (303)433-8785

Plus one on the La Briola set up. I've known Rick and his work for over 30 years. First class all the way!
