your big problem is not the cowl band but finding the retainer to hold it on. they are spot welded to the cowl. I have two originals with out the retainers.

You do need the base retainer if yours is missing. I had a 29 Murray with the base still on the car so I made the band out of a Universal Tire brass molding , shaped it over the retainer and had it plated, looks as good as the original but by the time it was plated and polished it cost around $400.
