I need some help locating this Simmons Carburetor Side Bowl connector.

Can someone send me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Well, that's a little different. Do you own this and having problems, or simply trying to find the part to replace the one you don't have?

I do not have these but need it to make my restoration authentic
I am still looking for the bowl also, see the wanted page.

Gosh. One might wonder if the Simmons part was anything like the Ford sidebowl part? Here's Snyder's pix.

I believe what you're looking at is the side towards the carburetor bowl. The silver threaded part you see is the connector bolt which is hollow and shows as a hex on the other side.

I think this one takes the "Ford Nut" (as said by another respondant) i.e. a compression nut and ferrule. So in this much it's probably not exact. Do you need exact?

Link to your want. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=98216

And the Snyder repop is not exact.

Check out my want ad Joe, the Simmons side bowl is different internally.
I am sure the Zenith will work but prefer the original Simmons.

MOds figure this out. Joop's reply No. 6 used to come before my final No. 5. Somehow/somewhere this thread got date modified.

Doesn't the International Date Line run down the Mississippi river?
