    Steel Tube for PCV

    For some strange reason, I have decided to put the 4300D carb back on in place of the VERY leaky Holly I currently have. Was wondering if over all the years of folks replacing the stock carbs, if someone saved the steel PCVtube and/or the bracket? Mine was tossed out about 35 years ago. Have...

    Hello from the Pacific Northwest

    Hello from Washington State. On Father’s Day this year I cleaned off the large workbench in my garage only to discover it was my 73Q-4 Spd, purchased in 1980, that has been sitting there since 2003. My how time flies. Popped the hood, trunk, and doors and gave her a walk around. What a mess...
