Default Holley Carb.

Well kids back in my day we didn't have fuel injection we had carburetors.
So I was looking at left over parts from putting together my Wild Willy driver, and I seen one.

Don't see it? Ya I didn't at first either. But then there it was.

You need two sets.

The only thing not from the parts tree is a piece of.80 styrene for the baseplate.

Not bad but even better with some paint.



I have something else to do to it, so stay tuned.

Thanks everyone. I did order a Rogue Element air filter. Thats why the idea for the carb.

I used a Sharpie to ink the top in, really sets it off.



Size comparison.

A couple of shots on my Bronco so you can see the size. It's probably closer to 1/8 than 1/10 scale. I'm not going to use it on the Bronco I plan to use it on my next build.
