The ultimate Stromberg 97 challenge
City:
Kemptville
State:
Ont, Can
Price:
?????
Something special for that guy that always want you to find him a nice but inexpensive Stromberg 97 at the next swap meet. This very complete large logo 97 is the ultimate challenge that will eliminate the weak of heart, leaving only Ken CT, Uncle Max and/or Charlie NY to attempt a restoration. Open to offers exceeding 25 cents (plus shipping). Cheers Fordbarners : Bruce

Re: The ultimate Stromberg 97 challenge
Hey "WEEKS 46", you are incorrect, actually you can polish a turd. Myth Busters tried it out and actually got pretty amazing results.

Re: The ultimate Stromberg 97 challenge
Hard to believe, but this carb was in a box along with three other very nice 97s and two really nice 81s. Go figure???. Bruce

Re: The ultimate Stromberg 97 challenge
My dad is a TV repairman. He has an awesome set of tools. He can fix it.
Now let's get serious, I will offer $1.00 + postage. I'm gunning that base can be salvaged. |

Re: The ultimate Stromberg 97 challenge
I think it should be mounted as a trophy of some kind. To the Fordbarner who makes the nicest car out of a junk heap. Or to the junkiest car driven to nationals.
