Iver pedal broke off

It’s the right side or chain side.

That looks like its been fractured for some time.

It's fortunate that it was the right pedal that failed. You can use a standard screw extractor to get the remaining piece out of the crank. It probably would be a good idea to change out the left pedal as well. I'd hate to think about losing a pedal while standing and pedaling up a hill.

And yes, I remember the reverse-thread lug nuts on the left side of my dad's 1963 Plymouth.

So does the 1963 Buick Riviera. Strange, I know, but true.

So does a '62 Pontiac Catalina. A lesson I learned right after I snapped a left side wheel stud.

I got the broken piece out of the crank arm without damaging threads. I borrowed the pedals off the tandem for now.
