Few days ago the old army buddy... ( I think their all old now ) sent me a photo of a carburetor he had stashed in his stop. Knew nothing about them.. neither did I. I ck'd the web and seems they where the hot rod setup for old Fords back in the 20s and 30's. Found one on evil buy... $1600.oo.... Yikers !
These are a dual unit. I showed the photo to a local fellow who has a period Ford and we had to break out the mop to clean up the drool. He was all in.
Yesterday the army buddy emailed.. seems, somehow..Speedyway Motor museum got wind of the carbs. Their in... " negoiations ".
