Just found out that the rubber insert for the Accelerator Foot Rest is no longer made. Was discontinued 15 years ago (Brattons). Had a nice one that was Cad Plated but the rubber part got removed along the way when it was not suposed to have been.

Now what.

Yes I know...Find another that has the original within.

I ordered one from Berts I believe about a year ago. The whole thing not just the rubber.

I used to get them from Doc Kalinka, RIP, at Hershey. Another good source who is no longer with us.
