Ok - got everything ( I think ) to rebuild my engine, apart from the carb.
Anyone got a spare carb ( not putor controlled ) for my 1981.

So I guess a 1980 or pre will do - auto box if possible.

Cheers,
Hugo

How soon do you need it? I'll be taking mine off in the spring if you can wait that long. Right now the car is in a storage garage and I can't work on it.

79 Q-Jet, auto, no computer, choke etc all works the way it's supposed to.

Yes, that would be great - was planning on getting the Vette ready sooner but work prevents it all happening.

At the moment ( after an arson attack - pun there somewhere ) I am in charge of rebuilding Cardiffs largest gay club and re opening it for Xmas.

So, we are working to a deadline.

When you are ready give me a shout - phone / fax

0044-1646-697970. or
07878-641-676.
Many thanks,
Hugo.
