"The ABC's of carburetion- - - - -Always Buy Carter!" That was Carter's slogan foe many years.
Rochester carbs are probably the biggest cause of high blood pressure, falling hair, fallen arches, heart palpitations, and a bunch of other maladies among stovebolters. When General Motors decided to build their own Chevrolet carburetors back in the late 1940's and stop buying Carters, the CEO of Carter vowed to sell a million replacement units for Rochesters. It took a few years to do it, but when the one millionth Chevy replacement carb came off the assembly line, he had it gold plated and presented it to the CEO of General Motors. Quite an advertising coup there!
