Default Parts for 1939 V8 60HP engine for Early Ford V8 Museum

As many of you are aware, I am restoring , at least cosmetically, a V8 60HP engine and transmission which will be donated to the Early Ford V8 Museum in Auburn, Indiana when I pass away. I will be needing some small parts from time to tome, so keep in touch.

At this point I need the clam shell, at least the outer half, the cork seal, the special inner bolt (I have the special thick washer) and the two bolts that hold it together. I will also need the gasket between the transmission and engine.

If you have these parts let me know how much, or it would be nice if you can donate them to the project for the museum.

At my age your prompt attention to this request is greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure. Are they? My research library is sorely lacking nowadays.
