This is what takes the time - adapter

[StanHowe]

Spent the better part of the day a few days ago making this. Started with two junk carbs with the correct sized flanges, cut the flanges off, two more carbs, cut the elbows off a couple Zenith 04's which is the best thing to do with them -- use them for parts.

Did a little work on the mill, fitted the five pieces together, got out that $100 roll of real genuine Silver solder and a little flux and a little heat, glued em all together, got on the soft drum sander and blended it all together, make an insert for one hole so a 1/4 - 28 bolt would thread in, threw it in a box and sent it off to Pennsylvania or someplace back there to adapt a Rayfield UF carb in place of the Breeze carb on a 1910 era Huppmobile.

Also flipped the throttle arm to the inside so it operates correctly for the Hupp setup. Zoom Zoom!!

Off on a little short concert tour down through Wyoming and South Dakota, backup band is traveling on their own, meet them in Gillette for Friday night, go from there. Enough carburetors for one week.
