Title sez it all, included with the 3 cars I bought are a set of triple choke 40ida's.
These were refurbished by Bieker Engineering ($808.35) and have not been installed since the rebuild. What would be a fair reserve to place on them if they go to ebay ?

Thanks Bob

I think that 2 grand is optimistic. A sparkly-new set of PMOs can be had for 2600.

Who knows how long they've been sitting, or under what conditions? "Complete refurbishment" can mean many things to many people - and quality of machine work varies.

Good luck with your sale.

I'd say they wouldn't sell at auction for more than $1200 to $1400 max.
Maybe if Bieker, or George sold them they could get more, but from a private party I don't think they'll fetch close to two grand.
I'd be happy to proven wrong though. Good luck.

$1.5k would be a nice auction for you. Harry does good work.

Ok you "punks"!!! You have to come and visit and we will all run the 4.5 mile river course and then we will go the bar and chase some women for the rest of the night!!!


Seriously though for the vintage 914-6 or 911 owner wanting absolute originality, nothing but an original set of webers will do. Richard's PMO repros are superb, but not original. Galen B, does an excellent job of overhaul along with cad plating so the carbs look NEW again. That is why they are worth the money and I am sure that the collector would be happy to pay 2 grand for a fresh set.

Harry (Galen's Poppy) does the carbs. He did my MFI. You're right, they should look new.

With some good pictures and descriptions (and seeds to proper forums like www.early911sregistry.org) they could go for some serious coin.

(Is there a road next to said "river course" so I can time you guys to see how fast you're running and to make sure you did all 4.5 miles? Reminds me of old bull/young bull... tag line: "let's walk down there and fuch them all!") (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
