Ford used steel vacuum line and a compression fitting called a "Ford Nut" at the vacuum advance canister, and at the carburetor. I can source those, but not the carb fitting.

The fitting looks like the one on the right in the pic, this is necessary to make it work. Anybody know a source for these or part number?

Is this the fitting for a teapot that you are looking for??

CASCO has preformed vacuum lines for 55, 56 and 57.  All have the fittings on them.  For a TBird, but  should be close for a sedan

Another possible source - Roy Naciewicz,  He is on  Ford Barn and has a lot of Ford hardware.  I don't have contact info handy.
