Anyone know where I can get a carburetor used close to Greensboro? Atleast a phone number, or email adress. I would like to buy it local, or someone that can finish my rebuild...Hey, my name is Zac to well, actuall Zaki

oh boy, i remember the crazy deer incident. that really sucks. i know where you can get a fender for cheap if you haven't already found one.
why are you taking your front bumper off? want to go for the stock look?
as for lucy, i hope i have running again by the end of this week too, but its doubtful, because of work i am short on daylight and i think i have a busted radiator from the wreck, and i don't have a spare one. but we'll see. heh.

Dang red. What did you not break? What style rad do you need? The SE that you are getting the sheetmetel from has one that was holding water. It is the tall style SE Rad.

Are you looking for a working carb or a core? I found a junk yard but have not been able to go through it yet. it is on exit 19X on I-40. going west you will see a lot of cars on the left. it is off of that exit.

Glad I could help. do you know where all the bolts for the fenders are? There are 4 that hide very well.

the silver one you've seen might have been me I roll through the boro quite a few times. I had trouble with my nikki carb when I bought my car and I fiddled with it twice and got it to breathe. If you still got problems with it I could take a look at it.
