Looking for (1) Weber carbs chrome piece like or similar to the ones shown here from the 1/25 Revell BRE Datsun 510 Race Car kit; have lots to trade... I am in Illinois; thanks!

Anybody have any pair of 1/25 Weber carbs similar to the ones shown in my picture?  They could be from any 1/25 kit and do not have to be chrome.

I'll check my parts box tomorrow, may have some that are individual.

Hi Mark.  "Replicas and Miniatures of Maryland" has several sets and sizes of Weber carbs.  This company might be hard to reach, as they don't do "online".

If you don't hear from Old Trucker, let me know.  I have 4 webers from a chevy 427 corvette motor (chrome still on the sprue). I'm near Pontiac.

Those are downdrafts. His photo shows sidedrafts.

Mounting Weber downdrafts as sidedrafts makes as much sense as mounting a Holley 4bbl upside down and calling it an updraft.

Are those Corvette units downdrafts?  The earliest kit AMT put Webers in was the '65 GTO (possibly the '64 LeMans convertible and GTO hardtop the year prior), and those kits used them horizontally as side-drafts.  Either way, those are way bigger than the Datsun setup.

If I remember right, the MPC Datsun pickup kits (those with the stock engine) have a pair of side-draft Webers that should work.

Thankfully Old Trucker shipped me exactly what I was looking for... the parts are soaking in my chrome stripping solution right now.  Thanks all, and thanks to Johnny specifically!
