The entire body has been sandblasted or chemically stripped, removing the goldish greenish brown color that they’re supposed to be. If I had to bet, I’d say it’s been commercially rebuilt, meaning it could be a mish mash of all sorts of different model parts, probably never even tried being run on an engine.
Here’s the same carb # in the for sale section with the correct finishes. A better piece at a probably much better price.
Also like the thread I linked says, that’s for a 1969 350/350. Here is how to decode the numbers.
thank you... I figured the carb to be 1972 by the date code and have the same carb... good stuff you sent, im passing on it however, no rush here, just gaining info and thank you again.

First, that's not a '72 carb. It's a 1969 Service Replacement for manual transmission only.
Secondly, it's a hacked, commercially rebuilt carb that has been sandblasted and stripped of all coatings. E-Mail me for my "Commercially Rebuilt Q-Jets Problems" paper for a list of just a few of the 100 things that will be wrong with that carb.
