Yeah I "accidentally" bought some Procomp heads on EBay several years ago and finally ended up using them in one of my sons race car.  I noticed that the guide plates had pretty much side slop so I replaced them with Comp cams guide plates Which were much better.

Hersey has changed a lot in 40 years.
Rules now are 25 years and older for cars and parts.
If you plan to go to Hersey and/or Carlisle book your room NOW !

Wow
That's the only number I have and it always worked till now
If you go on eBay and in the search box type in: vintage ford parts r us
it will come up to their listings and it has the door bumpers
Sorry about the bad number maybe they share a fax with their phone some time

Thanks for the reply Ray. I called the number and it is a FAX machine number.

There are two types of these bumpers a screw in type and a clip in type.
Vintage Ford Parts R Us has both types.
They are in Indy and their number is 317-786-8164
Give Stu a call he may have the other bumper's also

In catalogs from our various vendors, I can't find a listing for the rubber bumper that mounts in a 1/4" hole on the door jamb, where the lower rear of the door closes against the body. What is the part number for this bumper......Or what are you using?

Second question.....On Rancheros (and I assume wagons as well), there should be a rubber bumper that screws into the body,that cushions the tailgate support arms, when the tailgate is closed, to keep them from rattling against the body. The mounting hole is definitely a small screw hole. What is the part number for this rubber bumper........Or what are you using?
Thanks

I used RTV just to make sure I was not leaking from valve cover gaskets.

I would first pull the valve covers and make sure those gaskets are seated if you have metal covers. 
I had a major leaked and they had moved over time and just wept a lot.
