Carb Rebuilt Tuned Up and WOW!!!!

I sent it to UREMCO in Illinois. The cost was $200 which included shipping. For that price I wanted to get a rebuilt one, but I couldn't find one. The levers and linkages are just the original parts cleaned up - right? Why would they rust more than the original parts? The carb I sent in didn't really show much exterior rust. I think the rust he was referring to was rusty particles coming from the fuel tank that settled in the bowls.

I talked to him and he kind of chewed me out. He also told me I needed to replace the fuel pump. Actually the fuel pump had failed recently and I replaced it. I think the moral to this story is when you get a 50-year-old car, start cleaning up the fuel system from the tank and sending unit first.
