[FC] Need help with the MuseumBrier

[peter koehler]

If anybody is heading to the Virginia Vair Fair this 
coming weekend in Leesburg, VA I need a little bit of 
help. The MuseumBrier is still a work-in-process, but it 
is getting closer to being complete. Today I rebuilt the 
carbs and dialed them in. Now the van idles fine and I 
took it for a spin around the neighborhood for good 
measure. What I need is the passenger's side engine side 
sealing flap retainer. Or whatever they call them! It is 
the part that screws up to the body of the van and holds 
the rubber side flap in place. Larry Claypool gave me a 
pair of them, but the right side one doesn't line up with 
the holes in the metal. Perhaps it is for a Lakewood or a 
'62 wagon?? If anybody has one and can bring it to the 
Vair Fair I would appreciate it. We may have a "tech 
session" in the parking lot as well since the one-wire 
alternator conversion isn't doing what it is supposed to 
do yet. It might be a simple missing wire or something 
like that. I'd like to get that sorted out before driving 
the MuseumBrier from Bob Marlow's home in Annandale, NJ up 
to the big VCCA show in Franklin Lakes, NJ over the 
Memorial Day weekend.
