Super! Thanks for the photos and info. Interesting all these little details.

I have ONE original hood seal that I found in a salvage yard intact. Not appreciating at the time how rare they were, I didn't take photos of how it was attached. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. I keep it for reference...it's probably too brittle to use for long. I have one of a later car that is very soft, but a completely different design.

Do you still have original hoses and clamps? If so, what do types of clamps are used on the radiator hoses, and heater hoses?
