Dennis, Tape is a good idea - thanks, Bill

Is there fender welting between the running board apron and the front fender on a 30 coupe? The running boards are original (one piece apron/running boards). I don't remember seeing anything about this in the judging standards.

I think the real question is where did the debris come from? You are cleaning up an old engine that my have not run for a long time. I think I would pull the head. Save yourself time and trouble down the road. You cannot replace a valve without removing the head. Good like, Bill

The pictures are of the drip rails on my 30 coupe. They are welded on and I am not going to remove them. I can straighten the gutter and push it back but there will still be a gap. What should I use to seal the gaps between the roof and the gutters (shown In the pictures)?

What you said - me too! Bill
