Technical need carter carburetor parts!

Hello everyone, I ran into another setback in my restoration project.* I have a carter 4 barrel carb with a broken mount plate.* One ear is broke off.* I ordered a rebuild kit and the local welding shop wasn't able to keep a weld to stick.* So I have a new kit but a uselesa carb.* Doea anyone know where I could just buy a bottom plate or anyone who's parting one out? Thanks

 

You're going to have to be a lot more specific about what you have to get any real help. Good Luck.

 

Post a picture of the broken piece

 

What kind of carb? I have piles of old carbs.

 

Need pics and or 5 digit serial number (usually stamped on bottom or edge of bottom flange)

 

I got one, I need a pic

I know of plenty of cores just need to know which Carter you have, to go take a look.

 

I've run into rebuild parts availability problems on a carter,chevy 1965 application. Had to buy NOS parts, spendy, only lasted one summer before failing. Ended up putting an edelbrock on, hope you have better luck.

 

Its stamped 2005s

 

Carter wcfb 2005s off a 1963 cadillac.

 

Sorry 1953***

 

All I have are early to mid sixties pontiacs. I'll ask around.

Since the OP cannot post a pic

 

ok thanks guys! let me know what you come up with.

 

I would post a pic but the base plate is still at the welding shop. I haven't gone to pick it up yet sorry....

 

There are a couple of parts numbers in the Service bulletin on that carb in this link that might be useful. It looks like Cadillac started out with an aluminum base plate and went to a cast iron one. http://phscollectorcarworld.blogspot.com/2013/09/tech-files-cadillac-carter-wcfb-carb.html

 

I just really hope someone can come up with one or has one to sell to me.....I was going to look at a salvage yard. does anyone know what other cab will fit on my 53 Cadillac? or is the carter 2005S the only one? or.....what other type of car has a carb that will work that I could use? thanks

 

Contact Carbking here on the HAMB. He has everything you need.

 

thank you!

 

I had contacted them by email this morning I didn't realize that was the carburetor shop. just waiting for a response....

 

Not to hijack, but do you know about the Cruise in in Lewisburg next Saturday night?.-Search out Susquehanna Valley C.A.R.T.S.

 

The carb shop won't sell me just a throttle body. Anyone else have one they could sell me? I hate to buy a new carburetor just because of a broke ear....

 

No I didn't hear about it

There were quite few cars-all types-except R rods, at the last one.

 

Went and asked my buddy and checked out his stash of carbs no luck there sorry.

 

Ok thank you

 

Send me a picture of the base and the broken ear. I have old methods some modern shops never use. Maybe I can repair your old one.

 

I will as soon as I pick it up from the welding shop
