Default Quick hello and something else

Hey all. My name is Dan and I'm a Michigan boy. I have been around hotrods and Chevys in particular since, well, as long as I can remember. I have a very interesting carburetor that according to all of the literature I can find, belongs on a 1970 Corvette LS7. I have heard all of the theories about this LS7 motor.. Regardless, 30 or so years ago I bought a 1970 Z-28 that had been wrenched and on it was this carburetor.
It is:

LIST-4559 3967481 4150 Holley

I do not need this carb and it is not a correct part for my Z-28. I have bought a proper carb for the car and to pay for some parts, decided to put this one up for sale. Someone trying to get a numbers correct car would need it assuming they had an engine that had been tampered with and at that time few were not. I thought this may be a good place to let it be known that there is one available.
If anyone knows of someone that needs it please drop me a line.
PS. I have a photo of my Mom driving a 1953 Vette that my Grandpa owned. He bought it new and had several Vettes throughout the course of his life. Wish he had kept that one. Heh.
Regards,
Dan

Welcome to the Forum, Dan.
You might have better luck with the carb by posting it in the C3 Parts for Sale section: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ale-wanted-57/
Hopefully, you'll put up the photo of your Mom in your Grandpa's '53.

I appreciate that and I'm sure you're right. I'm really not sure of what to do with it and frankly, I'd prefer it went to someone that needed it rather than wanted it. Thanks.

You really need to post the carb for sale in the C3 Parts for Sale/Wanted section and per forum rules you will need to include an asking price or the thread will be deleted. I'm closing this thread as it is really not an Intros topic.
