    $21,000 is probably a wee bit high, but the $150 offer is more than a wee bit low.

     

    The Darrin carb is beyond rare! This is the first one I have seen in 50 years that was not on a car. I have never rebuilt one, never owned one, and have owned some exceptionally rare carbs.

     

    But the only carb I have ever seen bring that kind of money was a new old stock Packard 734 Detroit Lubricator. I had one of those years ago, but it wasn't new old stock.

     

    Thanks for picturing the carb.

     Here is the other one I got. I installed it on the car.  The other one just sits in my office.. I just never installed on the other car I have.

    Are you serious...twenty one thousand dollars for a carburetor and air cleaner?!  You can keep the air cleaner and I'll give you $150 for the carburetor...

     

    That carb came off a Kaiser Darrin. How do you price something that is never sold. I could not find one..

     

    I also could not find one to buy..  It took me 11 years to get the one in the picture..
