Thank you
Mine too man, I love 60’s hot rods and even the crazy 60’s Ed Roth style hot rods. I absolutely love your car. Beautiful roadster man.
Yea, most guys back in the day liked the look and had no idea how to tune them.
It’s a traditional late 60’s style hot rod, fiberglass body’s came out in the 50’s, so technically yes. It’s not VW induction, it’s Weber...
IDF is model nomenclature for this type of Weber carburetor. IDF stands for Invertito or Inverted Downdraft Fiat.
I would be honest about them if they were crap. They wouldn’t still be there, that’s for sure. Not sure of your engine size, but 48’s may be a...

I get that, and I know it would look good, but I’m trying to go for a more “late ‘60s period” setup as I can and no one was running SS, mandrel...
Yea, that wasn’t really what I thought I was getting when I took it to the muffler shop. I was hoping for a smoother look with minimal bends....
I love them. These 4.0’s are pretty spectacular compared to the old Webers. They have a lot of new features.
