  2. Looks like a single barrel Carter like came on an old Chevy 6.

    But I did see it at a bank robbery in Pig Snarf I think it is Clem Caditalhopper from the Hershal and Ward gang.

    Looks like Carter 1 barrel for a dodge. I rebuilt one just like it for my 1949 Dodge Route Van.

    That is a Carter B&B that came from a Chrysler or DeSoto with the Presto-matic.
     
  6. Late 40's to mid 50's Mopar flathead sixes used them a lot. Hygrade still makes a kit for them. part#101a,fits 1939-54 carbs.
     
  7. after going back and looking at the pic's again, I totally agree with moose. My 50 Chrysler carb looks just like it.

    See them at swap meets fairly often in the $15.00-30.00 range.

    Carter Ball & Ball from an early 50's mopar. The two electrical connections are what make your "semi-automatic" ****** shift. My '53 Desoto had one before I did the motor swap.

    I spent $100 on a core, turns out my carb was in better shape than the core I bought off the internet. The guy said it was all good, when I opened it up it was full of dirt.
