Well, more than that.
This is a "services offered" in that you may think your rotten piece of history is history... give me a chance. Maybe it won't be perfect, but we might make it usable again.

Worth a shot

That is so true.  You did an excellent job on the fire survivor carb I sent you.  It may not look perfect, but works great.

This is the same. I cannot fix the pock mark of corrosion, but the insides of this one were perfect. Even the gasket mating surfaces required very very little.

One would be very hard pressed to find anyone better!!!!!   Drews attention to every fine detail whether a rebuild or concours restoration is unmatched in my opinion. Check out his AirFuelSpark page on FB. Amazing craftsmanship and KNOWLEDGE of the FORD Holley carburetor.

That is amazing!  That carb's "before" photos look like it's been on the bottom of the ocean longer than the Titanic.
