Granies's china from Uncle Max
This morning I received a package from Uncle Max. Several weeks age I sent him two of my Stromberg carbs for him to re-build. I'm so pleased with the outstanding job he did, I had to share it you you folks.
Thanks again Max.

Re: Granies's china from Uncle Max
Absolutely beautiful workmanship. Maybe it takes an old Ford nut to enjoy such things? Almost orgasm quality.

Re: Granies's china from Uncle Max
I spent some time chatting with him at his shop when I dropped my carb off. He's a super-nice guy that doesn't mind showing some of his tricks. He's made some neat tools to get the job done, too.

Re: Granies's china from Uncle Max
Can't quite read the stickers atop the bowl...they look like 1950's Ford rebuilt ones. Are they custom Max ones or duplicates of Ford ones or...? Whatever they say, they are a nice added touch on beautiful carbs!

Re: Granies's china from Uncle Max
The rumor has it Uncle Max is also secretly toiling away on a "new" top secret Stromberg-esque hydrogen fuel cell injection unit/carb. with the goal to win the $1,000,000 Progressive Insurance 100 mpg challange.
Besides that, Uncle Max does great work. They certainly look nice! |

Re: Granies's china from Uncle Max

He just did a couple of 97's for me too. Man are they pretty! True craftsmanship is alive and well in Utah
