I have been looking for some Weber 40DCOE31 carbs(40DCOE31 were the specified carbs and the number is engraved on the cover) for my MK 2 Lotus Cortina for a few years now, my carbs were replaced many years ago with incorrect units. These were on EBAY and in Croatia, I took the gamble and they arrived today, albeit the seller had 100% feed back and over a thousand feed back score, but you never know. Cost me £680 an absolute bargain, well chuffed.
Don't know whether to put them on the car or put them on the mantlepiece on display.

Just put them on the car
Isn't it great to find something after years of looking

The car is just a shell at the moment, on a spit, but I have volunteered the engine for a display item on my local car club stand at the Restoration Show at the NEC in March. More work I haven't really got time for, but enjoy the challenge, as we all do.

"Now that chassis number is particularly interesting ‘cos it’s the one after the one before, which is the one after mine, not many people know that"
