If things sound too good to be true there is usually a reason. Continuing, a 7040256 rebuilt carb today from a reputable rebuilder/seller will generally sell in the $5K price range--maybe a little more, or less, plus this seller has thrown in a W30 intake and a 977 distributor? Either this seller does not know what he is selling or there is another motive in play.
