Good luck with your search for parts ,if I could help you know I would. Hinshaws in North Carolina might have some of it ,James has quite a stash of original parts.

Gary,

I heard a lot of great things about this guy down in Texas http://motors.shop.ebay.com/brunte6915/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=

Or you may be able to find a local shop who can polish your trim like we did. It was spotless when we got it back. They usually charge about 10 bucks a foot to polish it.

Have you contacted SMI about your carb, Gary?

I had SMI build a Q-Jet for me last year...wow what a difference it made and they got rid of the famous q-jet bog.

Look above in my last post....I put in a link, but being the nice guy I am I will spend TRW's valuable time and repost it...ha http://www.smicarburetor.com/

Do you know the numbers you need? I have three of them at home including the one that is on my car and I can check them. Also, on the master cylinder do you know what and where the numbers are and I will check the one that is on my car and the rebuild one I have. I also have a contact at Cardone (Remanufacture) that does master cylinders and I can contact him to see if they can look at their cores.

Ric,the carb number is 7040204 and build date on my car is April 70. The master cylonder needs a casting number with a 409 in it and bb stamped on the front. Thanks.

I have to differ about SMI, they are ok but not great. My carb had problems when I got it, I had to buy a low pressure fuel pump 4-6 psi or else it would flood.
