Matt,
John Matta from Riverside, CA makes the Cat Ten gas cap. I'll attach his parts list if I can. In the event I can't, his address follows.

Good luck on the restoration and have a great weekend,
Tom
PS: File size is to big but you can contact him by phone via the address. Sorry I don't have John's phone number handy.
Matt,
There are several people that are reproducing the duck buill intake. Carl Soderberg (Sandman) is one of them. I also think Jim Zimmerman is making them. I think they are going in the $100 range.
As far as the red color code goes, give this guy a call. His name is Eugene. 641-228-4558
The rivots are actually little brass nails. You drive them through the brass plates and through the holes in the seat back and then just bend them over. Your back seat cushion covers them up. I would strongly encourage you to predrill the holes in your new plates and make sure that they line up real nice with the holes in your seat back.
Matt, I used Dupont Nason Ful-cryl II. Spectramaster red. It is a stock color that I matched to the decals I got from ACMOC. Hope this helps. Rick [email protected]
Thanks for the help. I emailed sandman and have not heard anything. Does he frequent this board?
Matt,
Which brass plates did you get from Huff?
were they the instruction plates for the back of the seat?
I could do with some.
regards Richard.
He has them all! They are a little different than the orginal.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
