Starter linkage/Rod

[GAR64]

31 Model A. Had one of those steering column levers for actuating starter switch. Part of it broke. Looking for a replacement or was thinking about just going back to foot starter. Car still has foot pedal and linkage that runs parallel to firewall toward starter. When I look for parts, all I see is a straight rod. What am I missing here? Or where can I get replacement parts for lever actuator??

Greg, I am assuming you are speaking of a Fulton Lift-a-Starter, -or something similar? Can you post some pix of yours and what is broken. Those were simple enough someone can probably fab what you need.

I’ll take a couple pics and post. In the mean time, can someone post a pic of what the connection at starter looks like with a regular pedal?

Not the best picture in the world...

This one is just starter actuator. That Fulton one is attached to the spark lever. This one is not. How can the normal pedal have a straight rod when it isn’t in line with the starter switch?? This setup had the lever on left side of column and it pushed down on a long rod on right side. I don’t know how to attach pics here.

Here it is

Sorry for the confusion and my ignorance… certainly the starter foot pedal is lined up to starter. I think I will simply get the correct button and rod. The setup that was on there was more trouble than it’s worth anyhow. Thanks
