RESTORATION OF BRASS-BODIED MARVEL CARBURETORS

Recommended Posts

Is there anyone that folks know about who is knowledgeable and capable of rebuilding the old Brass-Bodied Marvel Carburetors?  Classic Carburetors down in Phoenix were the absolute best at these units.  They are no longer in business and I'm told that Tony Bult in Wisconsin doesn't work with them much anymore.  Everyone cusses these things and labels them as temperamental, however, if they are adjusted right they are really a pretty good performing carburetor.  I have a good friend who is in need of having the Marvel rebuilt for his 1917 6-Cylinder Buick.   What say you Buick enthusiasts?

You might try Rand Broadstreet at Vintage Carburetors Ltd 440 786 8141.  He was able to help me with the Marvel on my 1928 standard Buick and it was in bad condition, missing parts ect.
