Hi Mike, Some of the parts you are looking at might be fixed easy instead of buying new or used. A couple 4x4 or 6x6 block of wood can be used to straighten oil pans and throttle rods without leaving hammer marks. The throttle rod I have been told is a hollow tube with the ends welded on so it can get smashed or collapsed if not careful. Another thing on the throttle rod is it may have been bent on porpose to keep from rubbing the hood because of worn out attaching parts or the sheet metal parts not lined up right because of missing shims or washers. That would be something to look at. If you want send me an email with your phone number and I can tell you how to straighten those parts without wrecking them and it is easy and cheap to do and few tools required!. It would take me too much time to type it all out. The best advise on a restoration I can give you is don"t get in a hurry! I have seen more money wasted and and credit ruined from people hurrying a project in the 20 plus years I worked on restoration cars and selling parts. When I did some of the cars and tractors I had very little money also, but I still ended up with something nice. I will be glad to help out!
