'66 Tri power set-up

Have a line on a intake, three carbs and some of the linkage. No carb tags or fuel lines, everything has years of dirt/grime/rust. Trying to get idea what it might be worth, have pictures on my phone but out of town, no way to download. Number on intake is 393288, hard to read number.

It's probably 393238. Try to get a good idea of condition and what is included.

Thank you Ozzie you are correct. Saw a complete setup on eBay for $4995, but didn't sell. Seller asked if I could do $2,500?

Make sure it is complete and all linkage, etc. is correct. Parts are very hard to find. I bought some extra stuff in the 1970s but virtually no one else did so. The heat riser blocks and their bolts are often rusted tight. 2500 would be a real bargain if correct, complete, and usable condition. I wouldn't sell my spare setup for that amount.

Pictures would go a long way to help you get assessment. The tri-carb guys can really help you out a lot, and guys like me that are still learning. Following along as they say

A complete and I mean complete restore able set up is probably worth $3500. If there's parts missing,fuel filter assy./long oil tube,tags etc.,it's worth less. I've seen them all over the place in price,junk for a lot of $$$ and good ones for less $$$$. There is no set price,it's worth what somebody will pay.
