Carbs? Many of us might have regrets about things related to our trucks. My biggie was an estate auction I attended. This fellow had an at least 3'x3'x3' wooden box built on a shipping pallet. It was filled to the top with old carbs! I had to get to my daughter's event (can't remember which) and didn't stay for the carbs to come up for bidding.
I think there was a bunch of Stovebolt-good carbs in there.
There was another box on a pallet full of PTO's.
This was 25 years ago and I still cringe when I think about it. Daughter would have forgiven me by now. 1948 3/4-Ton 5-Window Flatbed Chevrolet 34 Years. Now with a '61 261, 848 head, Rochester Monojet carb, SM420 4-speed, 4.10 rear, dual reservoir MC, Bendix up front, 235/85R16 tires, 12-volt w/alternator, electric wipers and a modern radio in the glove box.
