    I saw this pedal on ebay, and was wondering if this is in fact true. Are the 70 pedals different than the other ones? I have never seen a 70 pedal, but this one is completely different than the one in my car. Is this correct? It looks kind of like a Mustang pedal. I don't know why they would be different, but then again the 70 owners on here would know better than me. Thanks.

    1970 gas pedals are different....as are the throttle cable ends.

    When I changed my '70 to a 302, I changed the pedals over to the '74 donor car. Made everything easier to hook up.
