That might be a really good price for someone. There is a 3922S on Ebay and the current bid is $400 with two days to go!

Quite a coincidence..... Marxjunk just pm'd me a few days ago what a rebuilt 66 4 speed carb was worth.....and I gave him the same figure!
I already have a few '66 carbs, but I'll spread the word about this one.
The 4 speed carbs do have a different vacuum passage for the distributor advance. .....so this one would be a good alternative to a correct 65 4 speed carb.

Walt,

Yes, please spread the word! Do you think I should post it the V8Buick forum?
And yes, it worked great on my 65. Thanks!
