Who still has NOS carbs? Or how about a good take off?

You will probably not find a NOS one. There are new replacements out there, I am running one and am very happy with it. I have a whole pile of T/O's but they are in sad shape. I am going to strip them down and rebuild them.

I have an NOS Carburetor on mine and it's run well since day one. I wonder though... it has to depend on how they are stored. In other words NOS might not be better than rebuilt. What I would hate to do is pay NOS and then have to rebuild it. I see them now and again on eBay but that's anyways going to be a gamble.

Is it NOS or is it Krylon? (paint) When I get done with the ones I have they will look just like the one in Ralphs picture. No, I will not market them as NOS but people do it all the time. If you have to have the correct numbers on the top of the carb for a perfect resto then buy a NOS or T/O, if not, consider an new replacement. Cheaper than a NOS, brand new with an external mixture adjustment.
