Re: Bronze Fuel Bowl Casting

Unknown

Hi, everyone.  I have a 1928 Hudson with an incorrect Carter carb of unknown origin.  “Baby Jane” is a very nice aluminum-bodied (Murphy) Model O but she’s a complete bear to start and run.  I’ve looked for about a year but have yet to come up with a correct carb (you 1929 guys have seemed to scarf up all the good 1928 carbs).

 

So, you can stone me or cuss at me, but I need a good runner so here’s what I’m going to do.  I’m tearing the whole original intake/heat riser setup off and having a simple intake fabricated.  This will use a Stromberg 97 carb with an electric fuel pump.  The car will start and run like a champ and I will keep the hood closed.  Life’s too short.

 

Keep those old Hudsons on the road!
