Tony if your Q-jet has been rebuilt but the bushings for the butterflies are worn,base plate on the carb is warped it will drive you nuts you never said if it was a 2bbl or 4 bbl if it's a 4 bbl here is a holly spreadbore that will work. I can't remeber where I seen it posted.

Tony, If your close to Bristol, TN there is a place called Kelley's Corner. He is an old Studebaker mechanic, but he works on Chevys too. He called me about a Chevy part once and seems like a real nice guy. He's also listed in Hemmings Motor News.

Thanks Bill. I am in Bristol! Wonder if he makes house calls? lol. Sure would save a tow bill back and forth.

I have never heard of that place, but I will look into it. My other uncle said he may know someone. I asked him about it this evening when he was by showing off his wifes brand new Jetta and he also asked if they installed the cam right. They had better!

 

Tony I am looking for a free wagon.

 

Tony,

I found his address:

22 14th St
Bristol, TN 37620-2012
(423) 968-5583

Altho your Uncle's friend may be the way to go first.

Bill

 

Ahha. It would have to be free or you would not be happy with it.

Ah, thanks Bill. I know where that street is... I work about a mile from there. Its close to downtown. I do remember my grandfather speaking of a old man that worked on Studebakers on that street. The irony is that street is only one block away from where my dad bought my first car in 1992... a 1972 Cadillac.

 

Bright side is.... if something happens I dont get it running right, I have some prospects on a couple of trades...

One is another wagon... 1972 Pontiac Grand Safari 3-seat wagon, which is one of my favorite wagons!

The other is a 1972 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham.... another one on my favorite list.

Hopefully though I can get my wagon up to spec. Going to do a vacuum test soon.
