Cliff R ? / Is this a SR carb and .....
« on: October 26, 2014, 11:29:07 AM »
Cliff what is the orange paint on this carb?  Does it mean that it is a SR carb? 



Also, can you supply some photos of what your carbs look like when they are complete?  I am interested in seeing some Qjets that are fully restored to factory.  I have a couple OHC carbs that I am interested in having you restore.

Thanks

Marc

Most likely NOS, those have the paint and other similar markings on them.....Cliff

The picture I provided is from a eBay auction and the seller claims it to be NOS.  Seemed strange to me that it would have orange paint slobbered all over it if it were meant for a production car.

The carb in the picture is a 69 OHC Manual Carb which by itself is very rare especially in NOS form.  Would it be acceptable to save all of the pics (the seller did a good job) and send those to you for a reference to restore a carb?  This is unless you know of any differences of the carbs for this model and year being different than what is pictured.  I would rather stay with your expertise and work.

I'll send you an email for more information and a quote for my project.

Thanks
