fall carlisle treasure
good fall carlisle show yesterday - found some stuff I've been looking for for some time now. The carbs are old vette or 56-57 chev WCFBs, the caps are 59 imp poverty caps. (I already had the offy dual quad manifold from a previous scrounging trip) The impala caps still had the brown celophane paper separating them - never installed. some were pretty pitted, but most very nice -they all cleaned up well. Best news was no dings. carbs will take some work, and are pretty close on the mfg dates. but still need to decipher a little more... got all for a pretty good price too. Good show this fall. Still soaking my feet after walking for about 10 hrs, then driving 7, but worth it. I found 2 sets of old vented vette dual quad air cleaners, one set trashed, the other perfect - couldn't afford either of them, so it didn't matter. Maybe on a future trip. Heading west soon, so will stalk the pomona swap meet to see if i can find 'em....
