On my car there wasn't any visible welting between the running board and the kick panel.  I have only owned the car for 17 out of the 94 years this car has been around.  The reason I say visible welting is that in some areas, where metal meets metal, there was visible signs of a thin fibrous material used in the joining.  But not visible after the joining.
 
This is my 2 cents so I hope others will share their experiences.

I'll see what I can answer.

The Front.

The joint you circled in the picture is supposed to be just that, no visible fender welt.

The Running board is supposed to have stainless steel outer Trim. See picture.

The Rear fender I used either 1/4" or 5/16" black vinal welting.  Currently don't remember which one.

Mine seems to be working ok since I worked out all the bugs. Logged about 230+ miles with the Kingston.

Interesting.., one is a 39F and the other is a 49F. I wish there were pictures of these disassembled.  I wonder what the differences are?

I agree with Tom, Nice job.

The Stewart Warner vacuum pump is designed for intake manifold pressure and shouldn't be connected to the oil pump. If not using the Kingston pump the oil pump vacuum port should be plugged.  Any vacuum line larger than 1/8" will cause oil pressure to drop. I would explain more but typing with one fat finger on an iPhone.  :)

Did my email go through?

I checked my spam folder and there you were. I no longer have PayPal.  I use Venmo or a check.  No big deal it's just postage.

These bolts are from my 29u engine.  The shop that rebuilt the engine didn't want to reuse the original bolts.  They used new ones. ???  If you need them you can have them for postage.

Is this what you are looking for.  I have a complete engine set of 8.

Can't help with the picture but I might have a set of old rod cap bolts.  I'll look when I get home.

See pdfs attached for Valve Timing.  (Plymouth Instruction Book May 1929)

If using original radiator thermal-syphon system works great.

Search on Ford model A T for open body cars.  Probably a Trico setup for an open car.  Actually that is what I am using on my 29 sedan. The on/off is on the Trico motor.

You will need to do some research to find a best fit. Is there a vacuum line going to the windshield.

Really nice picture. 

Congratulations, Chet
