I'd like to see what modifications if any you had to make them fit.
Now I'm gonna post up a couple of mine later since I just spruced up mine with a new repro

That looks fantastic!  How did you re-do the cadmium plating on your brake booster?

That's zinc di-chromate (sometimes called "yellow zinc"), not cad.

That windshield washer bottle on the left looks huge, or is that an overflow bottle?

That's the washer bottle.  It has the long kneck because of the charcole canister.  The canister also made it necessary to move the horns up front...right behind the grill.

Steve's right about the plating.  There are no cad plated parts on these cars.  It's my understanding that the parts are clear zinc plated first...then are dipped in a second solution to get the gold/rainbow color.
