Yes, that little accelerator pedal tang is everyone's ray of sunshine when the car starts to rust.

If you need to drive the car, just remove the pedal from the end of the linkage (the rod it attaches to). You can drive the car fine with your foot on that rod, you'll get used to it quickly.

I drove my w116 for weeks that way while the bodyshop kept putting me off for an appointment to do my floor.
