New VW Beetle Pedal Assembly

I've got a "new" used VW Beetle pedal assembly. This is great since I wanted to convert the roller to an accelerator pedal.

I bought this jewel for $10.00 at a VW show and went to work. At first, I soaked it in white vinegar for a couple of weeks, wiped off the rust and dust, broke down the old accelerator pedal and began sanding and painting. 

Here's what I have so far:

Halfway through pedal assembly rehab.

I've just ordered a new accelerator pedal rebuild kit for $5.00 on Ebay.
