    I had better put in my order, so I  would like at one set of carburetor 
spring brackets and one coil  bracket.  
 
    I already have a nice coil bracket  that I had made of stainless at a 
local sheet metal shop from a drawing I got  from John Paxo.  It does not have 
the studs like you are proposing to make.  I used sheet metal screws.
 
    In my write up of the June 1957  Plymouth Bulletin picture, I made one 
mistake.  The WCFB carburetors  in the picture have the aluminum square base 
rather than the "H"  base.  The manifold has the "H" bolt pattern for later 
WCFB's and  AFB's.  I managed to find a pair of the original aluminum  square based 
WCFB's and had them professionally restored in  Florida.  I also have the 
correct aluminum manifold.  When I get time,  I will install them on my 56 along 
with the manual choke as shown in the  picture, and of course the spring 
brackets when they become  available.
