Description:

Good day Gents,

If you have an older used weber 38/38 laying around on a shelf, contact me. Looking for an early casting if possible before branded by LCN on the casting.

Early 2000's or even earlier; must have actual weber logo and be "made in Spain".

Doesn't need to have working choke assembly and can have completely worn out parts shaft bushings etc. Just interested in a good casting and top plate core.

No clones or off brands please. Have paypal.

 

Truth be told I've a brand new LCN casting 2019 and just too many discrepancies with it. More I get into it the more I'm not happy. I think quality has gone seriously downhill and they may even be outsourcing (I know dare I say it). Paid good money for an actual weber from a reputable source. But I've modified it too far to return. Some areas where not noticed when starting but yeah I don't like this new casting. Could go into details on miss drilled holes, crossed threads for main jet etc but won't bore you to death.

Thanks!

Wow thanks guys. I haven't checked back with this thread since messaged Hal and made a purchase. Thanks for all that replied to help us out.

 

Here's Hal's vintage 1988 38DGAS; I made an album for it if want to see how it turned out.

Wow! Nice work... I have an old Weber 38/38 How much $$ to have you give it some new life? 

 

Actually, can you provide any insight to what you are doing, why the older carb is better? Is it going on a modified engine?

Thanks. This is for a M10 race motor. Hmm never thought of doing this for someone else. Process is fairly simple just takes some time. If insist I'm sure we can talk.

 

I posted the gist here.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
