Hi,
I just picked up this 1966/1967 Holley Carb that is missing the choke parts and not sure what else. Where would I find these, who would you recommend as a good rebuilder. Does anyone see any another things that are missing or incorrect.
Thx!

Thanks, ill reach out to him. Do you see anything missing besides the choke plate. Sorry its my first 715:)

Looks like the bracket that holds the choke cable to the vacuum secondary pod is missing
You can still get the choke kit from Holley....also from the usual suppliers like Jegs, Summit, etc.

Thank you all! Is this hard to rebuild? Does anyone know a good rebuilder, or should I just buy a kit and follow the instructions:)
Looks like it is missing the threaded plug for off idle vacuum port on the primary metering plate - pass. side. You may or may not need a plug depending if you have vacuum advance distributor. If vacuum adv. dist. will need a nipple adapter.

You need the plug if for 65-67 Shelby. 68 Shelby used a different carb but did have a vac port because the dist on 68-70 Shelby was vac advance . The brass adapter for the fuel filter is needed only if you want the original look. you can use the FG14 like what is on there but it does not look assemblyline. Shelby Parts, Virginia Mustang, NPD sell the brass adapter if you choose the original look.
I had Joe Bunetic restore my carb. He has been doing it for years. He also restored the carburetors on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd place GT350s at Pebble Beach in 2015.
If you are wanting it to look correct with redieing, plating and paint markings he will do it.
