Cool set-up Royce. Just out of curiosity what is the date code on the carbs, I can’t quite make it out in the picture? Jay Cushman posted a picture on Facebook recently of one of his Super Marauder sets, I’m just noting the dates for fun.

Thanks Royce, that’s it. Yours is “834”, 1958 March 4th week. The ones Jay Cushman posted were “814” & “815”, so two months earlier. It’s just interesting to note the production window on these rare parts, and we don’t see Super Marauder stuff too often. It’s interesting to note also that the set Jay Cushman posted have the same asterisk before the engineering number on the airhorn, possibly a unique feature of these.
