Nice shields! What do the extra clamps look like? Maybe we can offer a suggestion or three. Have you tried Mike Dulinski for the rubber piece. Within his 56 V8 parts cars maybe he has one.

I notice the end of a spring attached to the oil filter. Is that in addition to the regular spring that parts book shows going on linkage directly on acc pedal under the car or the one near the firewall? I've mostly seen just the firewall mounted spring and that is the only one I have -- but suppose there could be two on some cars.

Here is a photo out of the factory AC install instructions showing the one on firewall. Connects between a depression in the lever and a small hole in the flange 8-10" below on the firewall. The flange is just above where firewall ends vertical and starts to angle in.
