I bought this from a member of For A Bodies Only in 2013 and I have not used it on my car. It was built for use on 225 slant six motor. The person that put it together was 65 Dartman. It is set up with linkage, fuel line, and vacuum for power brakes. These are the early Webers that were made in...

Thank you all for your welcome. Here are some pictures I took before I picked it up. It was a little dark. I will get daytime pics soon. The car was stored on four jackstands and the tires were new and had never touched the ground. the valve stems were in bad shape though.
