There is absolutely no question the heat shields and parts similar were "lost" along the way. I worked in a service station in the 70's and know first hand that many parts like these were trash canned.quote]

Yep.....Just like the starter solenoid wire harness retainer clip. I tossed a few of them in my younger days. Now, originals are hard to find in pristine condition.

For those interested, the clip appears to be gray zinc phosphated.
