Hi, I'm looking for a carb numbered 7040257 (70 442 auto) I have on my car right now a carb numbered 7040253 which I believe is for a 70 442 4 speed manual. If you have a 257 that your willing to sell I would appreciate hearing from you.

Thanks!

 

Best I can do. It will need major surgery. $25 + the ride.
One plus is the inlet threads are in good shape however.

Thanks but I'm looking for a carb that I can mount right away - I should have stated that in my post.

 

No problem. How does the 253 perform? I couldn't find a good 257 so I used a
7041251 from a 71 455. Seems to work nicely.

 

The 253 works well, I just figured if I could find the proper one for the car it would be nice but if I don't then I have no problem just running this one.

Still looking for a 7040257 carb in working condition - will consider a carb needing a rebuild too as long as it is complete.

 

Still looking, please keep me in mind if you see one or come to know of one for sale.

 

carb was lost in the move
be a good patient

 

Thanks, I appreciate it.
