Fish carbs.....

[Araon]

Fecking typical....

been looking for ages for one of these beauties, got one lined up

may have another not confirmed yet but it would be a shame to walk away from this beauty problem is Helen will rip my nuts off if she finds out....so does anyone want one if I close the hard fought deal, at cost plus postage? I'm expecting to shell out 80 notes on this rare work of art......

marvelous history to these things and only ever seen one fitted before....the one I have deffinately scored has a simple manifold adaptor the other doesnt but can supply the adaptor for a template...

lovely simple carb

these are uk scottish version not the leonard reece (the orig mr fish are reputedly the best quality but gold dust), his son produced crap and ran the company to the ground, a canadian cant remember his name took up the rights, and later sold them onto Bob Henderson turbo guru who had some not so good dealings with leonard reece...these are the minnows of bob Henderson fame....

thats pretty cool and an interesting story, i assume the modern carbs are based around something like this?

the logo would look great sign written on a PV too.
