1950 F1 question

Hi guys. I have a '50 F1. Ok, it's a hot rod, but for this question, I think this is the right place.

My clutch linkage broke. I need to get the clutch pedal out to repair it. Even though the rest of the truck has been modified quite a bit, the pedal assembly is all stock.

Is there a way to slide the pedal off the pivot which goes through the yoke-like arrangement? I can't see one, but maybe there's a trick to it. If not, I have to take the whole yoke assembly out, right? In that case, I don't see how the pedals come through the floor of the cab.

Basically, I'm looking for hints, hoping to do the minimum amount of disassembly I can get away with.

Thanks in advance.
 
There is a ~7/8” shaft the clutch/ brake pedal pivot on. This is held in place by a pin that has its ends peined over. May be interesting getting that pin out
 
Yeah. In the last couple hours I googled around some, and found some descriptions and pix of that pin. I don't think there's any way to get it out without taking the whole assembly out. And If I do that, I don't really need to pull the pin anyway.

I'll look around a little more, but it's looking like I've got to take out the panel in the floor, so I can pull the pedal assembly out the bottom. Then disconnect the brake linkage, and try to weasel the thing out. Fun fun fun.
