Wow Jon, you know how to get my attention.  Carb porn! 

Hopefully, I'll be able to add to this collection when I receive my rebuilt carbs.  We can't have too much of this, can we???

Walt, I missed your post yes and yes ! The 3922 is the production carb for 65 and the 4179 for 66! The one I have is dated August I believe  but the vendors would have probably started making these prior to the next model year I think!? So maybe some got on 65's?

Thanks for the clarification Jon!

My 65 GS is a late late build (4th week of August '65) so was wondering if the '66 4179 might be correct for it.
I haven't been able to find a 3922 but have seen several 66 4179's available....I think I have 2 or 3 in stock but don't recall the date codes.

Sometimes I can't believe that there is still stuff out there! Anyways I needed a saddle auto console for the convertible ( one of the few parts missing). My buddy said I don't know if your going to find one!,just paint one! But I got lucky! Found a decent one ! It will need some of the chrome pieces replaced as they are rough shape but there are no cracks in the 50 year old plastic! Also
worked a deal on a mostly complete stick setup! No stick trans but maybe I will come up with something! You never know!

Here is a neat patch have not seen another like it!? ( supposed to be the real deal!?) It is the correct 5 x 5 ,25 square checkered flag! If it isn't a original from 65-66? Maybe something done later date but
It is very old though! Anyways thought you guys would like to see it!

The patch and the one to do the sticker! I will have to check!
