i was taking pics for a potential buyer on the highroofed panel i have the other day and noticed the odd pressing where the brake pedal comes thru the floor,i imagine it has something to do with the inboard brake resivour you can also see the 2 lines coming thru the floor in the pic,so my question is....anyone ever see this pressing before? if so on what?

i'll post more pics when i get a free minute to go out and snap some,the bus is a belgian import,anyone ever seen that funky pressing?

That's normal for a '67. It looks weird because usually there is the foam seal glued on top of it.

Interesting about the raised brake petal hole for 67's.

That reservior looks like crap mounted there imo, og or not.
