Just wanted to give a shout-out and kudos to Rob Kunz of St Louis, MO for doing a beautiful job on my 3269 carb. Got it bolted on a couple of days ago, runs as good as it looks!
It is his Son Rob doing them, maybe his Dad helps but Rob did a pair of WCFB's for a friend's 56 Chrysler 300 B

Dan,
That's what I thought, as well, and what the OP states in his title. Bob did a Holley 4160 for me about 7 years ago, and he said at the time that he was winding down but his son was thinking of taking up the business. Appears Rob learned the trade well.
Yes, Rob built this 3269s, and a few years ago I think his dad Bob rebuilt a 3721 for me.
And yes, it’s set up on running engine so my air/fuel mixture settings were fine.
I even bought the 3269s core with correct dates from Rob.
Here is business card from 40+ years ago -- numbers are no longer valid.
Visited his shop a few times and unbelievable number of carbs/parts.
Last time I saw him I think 2-3 years ago he was driving a '56 Vette survivor???
In talking to Rob, it was cool to find out that his dad Bob was the carburetor guru back in the day for the St Louis plant when they had issues (with carbs).
