Go back to that yard and get the spare tire mounting brackets and hardware. You'll probably never come across another one.
Copy that. Definitely plan on a return trip, making a list so I don’t forget the little things I’m after too. I’d like to have a couple distributors to rebuild and I also need a vac line clip that goes on the t-stat housing.
I was thinking when I paid the owner $30 a piece for the spare tire and Carter that he was high on prices, but after I saw what folks charge for Carter cores, I think I did ok. This carb isn’t frozen up and the wheel still has good hub cap clips.
