The Ford Barn

Hi T Barners, I'm from the A and Flathead side so not sure on T model stuff.
I've had this carby sitting on my shelf for ages and I think it must be a T Model ?. Has KINGSTONE tag on it & a B. Also the number "193401"(not sure of the "9")

Is it for a "T" ?

First off it’s not a Carby mate.

Note the QLD address. Anyone who has dodged a roo on the road will definitely know what a Carby is.

A picture would help identify the Carb.

It looks like a Kingston Model L as used around 1913 on Model T Fords. It has had the mounting holes cut out into slots to likely mount it on some other engine.

It is a Kingston Model L. Those were used from late 1914 - 1916. They were never used in 1913 because the Kingston L carburetor didn't exist then.

Royce P, just wondering what the letter "P" means in front of the manufactures tag means.
If anyone wants it is it worth sending from down under ?.

Or driven/owned a British car!

Morris Minor, Triumph TR6-A, and keeping it Ford, Cortina.

If your upside down you call it a carby otherwise it is a carburetor
