One of these?



Have you tried Jim Carter? - http://www.oldchevytrucks.com/

You could also try some of the carburetor specialits, and I saw several on ebay

Thanks guy for the reply. I have found a carb for the truck. Now my problem is finding a filter for it. I purchased one from LMCTruck. It was only 20 dollars. But it is about an eighth of an inch too small. The opening on my carb is about an eighth of inch over 2 inches. The oil bath filter that came off of the zenith carb is too big. Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance,
