I want an "original" carb -- 1964 Riviera

Thanks, Tom and Ed.  I'm sending the link to this thread to my mechanically minded coworker who got it running so he can read all the good info provided so far.

 

Since I doubt my car has the missing tube for the choke housing, I'll need to procure one.  Is that something I should be able to source at a local AutoZone / O'Reilly's?

 

We'll have her running soon.

I'd say not. But you can get the proper sized tubing and fitting and make one of your own.  You'll need to figure out a way to taper the one end.  CARS sells the white insulating sleeve that covers the tube.

Better to get the insulating sleeve from one of the Corvette suppliers as mentioned in threads previous to this one.
