Anyone ever repair a Jiffy Jet w/w reservoir bag? Wondering if a rubber raft repair kit would do the job?

I think your raft is sunk. All you can do is try the repair. It will be ugly.

$200+ to my door, that ain't happening. Not a show car, it's a driver.
If you are not concerned about being original there should be lesser priced options available.

You would think, but have yet to find any. I can find the Ford Mustang and T-bird bags for $20-$30, but they look too narrow to fit my brackets.

Defiantly too narrow, and top wont fit my cap and hose pick up.
Well you either pony up the big bucks or you make something else work. Get a ford bag. Make a bracket if needed and put the ford logo so it can not be seen. Put all your old parts in a box and save them. Myself I would already have plan B up and running.

I used the Ford Mustang one on my 64. Had no problem with bracket or cap.
Ford logo cleaned right off with some Go-Jo Only photo I got as car is long gone.
