just put a aftermarket fuel filter before the pump, steel line after the pump,any local garage should beable make u a line up, its simple,, i seen a 1969 dodge super Bee catch fire with a hose after the pump to the carb look at the line on ur clipper ,should be close to being the same as far as bends

i saw in the picture car has a rubber hose from the fuel pump to carb, sooner or later that clamp will leak, could spray gas on a exhaust manifold cause a fire, its ok have rubber hose behind the fuel pump but not in front of it, u have pressure there

i would take a spark plug out and if its wet ,its probably flooded ,u will need take all out dry them off,

i dont know how bad ur header bow is ,there is a company in new England and one in Pa. that makes bows for cars, just have to find them on the internet, if its not bad ,should be to easy repair

ill get the responders started ,why u using base clear if its a solid color ? im not sure how a 37 hood hinge is ,im doing a 41 hood now and i taped the hinge so no buildup of primer and paint, i did a 33 plymouth and ran into to the problem ur trying to prevent ,its a tight fit and further u have to slide the hood and sides ,the tighter it gets, so be careful

i seen one on a yellow packard at a auction in Smithton, Pa. few years back, guy told me they were used as parade cars ,that way big shots had there own windshield

if u dont find what u are looking for let me know,i have alot of outside stainless for a 55,400 email me at point7022@aol

Fish,n,Jim is correct on what he stated,hes not steering u wrong on it,it boils down to how much money a guy wants to spend on something u cant see? to put medal in there is expensive, i just did 2 doors on a 57 Tbird that was just as bad,i sandblasted and then put duraglass on the bottoms,after painted i put grease on the inside on the bottoms,i would fix what u have

im looking for the filler pan that goes between the rear bumper and body,and also
a base for a hood ornament ,let me know,
Thanks ,joe

listen to what Owen and Tim Cole stated,there right,u are looking at alot of expense and headaches down the road, i have a 41 and im replacing the rear with a 3.55 gear, i have seen a older packard with the gear vendors installed in it
