Hopefully it is a good restorer he chooses.

That is a great price for the seller, you wonder what he thinks it is worth.

Interesting, I just posted a thread about that carb and stalling at stops in the '65 4 speed I just got. When I adjusted the idle to 1200, it doesn't stall anymore at stops but the idle does still drop off a bit. I can drive it now without worrying at least. I am sure the idle is way too high however.

Thank you Drew, very helpful.

Ah, OK, good idea. Since this car was restored by one of the top '65 GT350 restorers, I was thinking maybe Drew did it. Anyway, one of my pet peeves after many decades of having cars restored is getting them back cosmetically perfect but mechanically neglected.  I am used to it, but never enjoy the sorting out.

Yes, and I suspect the secondaries float level are the problem. Thanks Bob, I will try to find out who restored this newly restored carb. Excellent Concours cosmetic work but lacking in functional/operational quality. I would not want to send it back to whoever that was.

Yes, you figured out what I was thinking since the car is stalling out and flooding when you come to a quick stop. OK, thanks!

I have adjusted many Holley carbs over the years, but the one on this '65 GT350 is unlike any I have seen before. One question, what does the big brass screw in the front that goes in between the fuel lines do?  There is one exactly like it in the rear too. Thanks.

Thanks Bob, great advice as usual!

Thank you!

OK, what would have been in the glove box of a newly delivered '65 GT350 from the dealer? Thanks.

How it started, how it's going.......

Congratulations, Mike.
(and Vern)

+1 Sounds like a "win-win"    for some of the SAAC team.
Mike - good luck with the paperwork and have fun with the car - WOW 

Thank you!

Thanks, I got an email announcing something, but it was blank.

Thank you!
