Bit shitty looking(beggers can't be choosers) but the car was a runner when it went in the yard
Its a 1300 a series maestro so should be running a 44

Can go and get it and post it to you if you pm your address
No idea what it will be for postage but don't think the carb will be more than a tenner

That got posted last night at about 4.30 pm :eek:
The carb will need oil in the dashpot coz they take all the fluids out before the cars go up the yard (seems a bit extreme to me )

Blagged the carb for free as a mate was in the yard buying a 3.5 v8 rover motor for in his camper van and the scrappy never noticed it had three carbs
Postage was about six quid so i wouldnt worry too much about payment
