Weber carb opinions

Hi all
Next few days I’m going to look at possibly buying a 79. From pics it might make a good restore project. It seems to run well (saw video) but it has a Weber carb with munike intake.
I’ve messed with Nikki’s in the past, but know zero about webers.
Opinions?

Hard to say without seeing what carb it actually is as Weber made different models.
I purchased 2 weber carbs and will probably never sell them (rarity).
If the car runs fine then no worries, enjoy it as is.

Probably a DCOE with Mikuni wrap around intake? Just guessing. It will run fine with that carb as long as its tuned properly. A hogged nikki is better.
