I have seen a couple of cars now with the same problem.  Both of these cars
had rust/dirt buildup in the bushings at the top of the clutch/brake pedal
pivot.  The cure is to disassemble the pedal assembly and clean/lubricate the
bushings.  The assemble is hard to take apart do to rust etc. so it is best
to soak with WD-40 and to fully understand the how the parts are assembled ie
review and exploded diagram thoroughly BEFORE working on the car.
