   I like the louvered hood, but must be a real problem in the rain. I remember my dad's 50 3A, the seam running down the middle of the hood always leaked rain water down on to the spark plugs and wouldn't start as a result.

   Did your dad's have the gutter near the hinge? I thought that the gutter was supposed to help with that.

   Dave, To tell you the truth, I don't know, I was only 12 years old back then. my dad had a quick fix though, just put a long strip of "STIX-ON" chrome adhesive tape down the middle of the hood, solved the problem. My dad's method of repair was always, the easiest way is the best way. Wise advise I still use today.

   Sounds like a good advice :-)

   I like the statement "Original" with an Aux fuel neck near the rear on the drivers side.
