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.......

+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!

How difficult is it to change out the tach in that dash pod of a '65 GT350?  Thanks.

He would have been 94 today, here are some pictures of him with his favorite car guy......

I have made 2 comments mentioning you, they failed to publish the first one, and I doubt they publish the second. The censors have me on block I think.

I remember having to title and register my CSX7972, 50th Anniversary FIA Cobra. What a mess that was with just an MSO.  I had to drag it to the State Police for a VIN inspection, they looked everywhere, including the new engine to make sure the CSX number was present, back to the MVD, more inspections, etc. Finally got it titled as a 1964 Shelby Cobra.
