Re: Rare? 1932 Chassis
The pedals look as though they are the earliest version with the pointed elbows like those in the photo below, but they are otherwise the same as the next and most common versions without the pointed elbows. There is a third version of the brake pedal where it was shortened by a 1/2" between the shaft and the elbow later in the model year.
As with the those in the photos in this thread, most pointed-elbow pedals did not have their own grease fittings, unlike the later pedal versions, but rather were greased through a fitting on the end of a partially hollow pedal shaft with holes aligned with the pedals. There must have been a fair-sized inventory of the early pedals as some show up in later chassis with a grease fitting in the pedal.
