Vietnam Vet67 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) Picked up this die cast at the Chrysler swap meet here in Michigan last weekend. No Box. It is missing one carb. Don't know if it is 1/24 or 1/25. Can anyone help me get a carb for this??? Carb diameter is 5/16". It is chrome with gold float bowls. Obviously I can paint one if it has the wrong colors. Thanks for any help you can provide. Edited February 20, 2020 by Vietnam Vet67 more pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 You may just want to replace both with a set from Fireball Motorworks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they don't have this type of carburetor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang1989 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Futureattaction offers these in a super detailed version but they are currently out of stock. Should hopefully have some more in fairly soon. http://futurattraction.com/8.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Force Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) If you want to go the easy way the same exact carburetor can be found in most of the Revell/Monogram Pro Stock kits and there are several resin casters casting them, so these are not difficult to find. I have been around the real stuff for many many years and these are definately not the best representation of a Holley 4500 Dominator by any means as a real Dominator doesn't look like that at all, so I don't know why so many still use them on their builds because I think these model "blobs" look awful, the Jo-Han 4500 carbs from for example the 71 Sox & Martin 'Cuda looks a lot more like the real ones. Unfortunately Fireball just have the 4150 and 4160 styles for Holley's and they are great but no 4500 at all, so the best Holley 4500 I have seen so far from anyone is the E-DOM-2N from Futurattraction, so if you want to skip the model carb and get a more correct look, use a couple of them.

He speaks the truth. Hands down best looking Dominators out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
