I'd be willing to bet Rich Eagle could figure out something. Sorry Rich, I don't mean to add anything more to your project thoughts. Dave
1925 mostly original coupe.

Cut it off, drill it out get a piece of brazing rod and solder it in place. I went a bit longer on mine and filed it to fit. Wasn’t very difficult but in took two tries before I was happy.

Thanks David. I think Mark has a good fix. I've never had to but sounds like it would work fine. A soldering iron would be better than an open flame if there are kerosene fumes inside.
