Fitting this Weber carburetor was a bit difficult because all I had was the carburetor and manifold. It was necessary to fabricate all the linkage.
I bought the accelerator cable from a local bicycle shop. It's the same material, only less expensive.
You will notice the fuel filter installation in the photo above. It is a generic filter from Napa Auto Parts, cheap and effective. I also plan to install one between the fuel tank and the fuel pump.
It appears that it will be necessary to purchase another air filter assembly. The filter I had in stock was a bit large and did not have the proper clearance between it and the wheel house. Here we go again...buying parts.
The archive listing of this blog contains detailed step-by-step photos and narratives regarding this restoration since it began late last December. Please direct any comments and questions to tommystoplesscars@yahoo.com.
