So after striking out at the local NAPA this morning, I think to myself: what about that guy that used to have the carburetor/distributor shop up on the hill?

10714]10715]10716]10717]10718] Turns out they were a Mopar distributor back in the 60s and 70s; shelves are stocked with choke assemblies, choke pull offs, complete rebuild kits, you name it! This is only maybe 20% of the Carter stuff(I couldn't back up any farther to get a better picture). The other shelves in this room are stocked with as much or more Holley, Rochester, Motorcraft, Solex, and Stromberg parts. I got a couple complete rebuild kits, 2 choke assemblies, 2 pull offs, and 1 never worn Plymouth jacket.

LOL, I'm not worried, Richard like those "other" carbs that start with an H.

Darn Mark and Rich.....I RESEMBLE those remarks! Wait a minute.....that didn't come out right! Rofl

By the way Rich, I've heard that other folks other than Holley made carbs, but I thought that was just an unfounded rumour! Smile

Now THAT'S impressive indeed! Looks as if they have several of most anything that someone would need to rebuild just about any style carb!

Please don't be offended, but I have to wonder why you would have gone to NAPA or any other normal parts store if you knew about these folks!
