Have you checked to make sure the fuel line routing isn't too close to the manifold? If it was replaced in the past, it may have been routed in a tighter path than original that brought it closer to the manifold. Once the engine is off, your not getting the airflow on the line and manifold and the heatsoak begins.
As an experiment, you could always temporarly wrap the line in some scrap insulation and see if it helps. If so, you need know the line is getting too much heatsoak after the engine is shutdown.

Do you have the insulator between the carb base and manifold?
Also, are you sure thermostatic spring is work on the manifold heat riser. Lastly, maybe the float value needs to be replaced. Just things that could contribute to carburetor heat soak related issues after the engine is shut off.

Perhaps you need to run a die or thread chaser over the. I always clean with a brass brush and a little brake cleaner first to remove any thread gunk that can emulate a cross thread.

Re: '51 Master Cylinder Removal

There are two bolts pass through the body of the master cylinder into the frame rail. One of those bolts also acts as a pivot for the shifter linkage.
Remove the two bolts and the slide the master cylinder down and forward off the pedal push rod. But before you do any of this, you'll need to disconnect the brake swtich wiring and brake lines from the junction block on the front of the master cylinder.

Disconnect the fuel line at the pump, install a hose barb fitting and a piece of New hose into a fuel can. If it runs fine off of that, the you know the pump/carb and fuel filter off the carb are OK. The you can work backwards from there to find where the issue lies.
But if you haven't, try running it with the fuel cap off. That is the simplest check for a someone who used an un-vented cap.

Some plastics can actual harbor mold and other things. I would try spraying it with a mold killer, like they use on drywall.

I'd imagine Coker or Universal Tire would have the correct style tires. I know Coker has an application menu on their website when you tell it what car you have and they let you know what tires "should" fit. It came back with the correct size on my 37.

I'll have to look. That module is fairly simplistic so it doesn't even store when a part was added. So there would have to be alot code added to support any of that. Pretty sure if the user field is a static text field as opposed to a user ID.
