    that looks more like a 68 Impala than a chevelle...love the scotch cooler, have the exact same one, but mine isn't mint enough to sell...

    sometimes I get lots of carburetors to scrap, but I always run the #'s on them to see if anything is rare. found a 4bbl that fit a 70 charger, sold it for $150 to a guy doing a numbers matching restoration, other carbs end up being part of tri-power setups, or other rare setups that people didn't recognize.

    You may be correct, now I can't remember, it was a few years back. Sold it as is no motor or windshield.
