Some interesting stuff there. Some are Model T accessory carbs and some are not. Lots of other interesting stuff, too. I have so much "Interesting stuff" already I can't walk through my garage!!

Isn't it amazing how the one for sale looks more inviting than the four you have?
When did I do that?

One should note that the carbs have not been selling well because he gives NO real details about them , says he knows nothing about them - what you see is what you get. I have emailed him to ask about one or two carbs in particular because if I am about to lay out $150 for a carb, it is good to know if the carb is seized or not and if the float and guts are inside. I have had zero response . A pity !

He has a couple thousand things listed for sale, probably bought a box of carbs at an auction or estate sale, they do not fit in well with his usual listings and he probably truly doesn't know anything about them.
Many are not t carbs and several are missing critical parts.
Some are also much more common than people think they are.
