i have the same problem... just bought an English Wheel to put the crown and bends in the valance to match the original contours. you can do the same thing with a shot bag and hammer and hammer and dollies, but will take a lot longer. also going to have to thin the edges that lap the quarter panels to match the much thinner original metal guage. joel

Hi, Just had the ebay rails installed last fall. They are longer and heavier gauge than the stock 240 rails. Well worth the price. Joel

Hi, Sounds like you're looking at a closed off carb preheater circuit. Most Brirish sports cars and some American cars from the sixties used this warm water circuit to prevent carb icing from the venturi effect of pulling possibly humid air into the cold carb body. Some owners block them off. I'm in the process of putting mine back into use to help cold weather warmup performance. joel

Have had a Lincoln SP-135 MIG for 2years. Just got a Miller Maxstar STH TIG. World of difference! Much finer control with the TIG, perfect for doing sheet metal patches and such.
