Not really race car stuff....but my dad is restoring a 1979 Dodge Lil Red Express. He needs to get the factory Thermoquad Carb rebuilt. Who would be a good person to do this ?

Gregg Luneauk and Brad Van Lant are the ones
that have built many of my modified race Thermoquads.

Gregg is retiring due to health issues but Brad is still
going strong.

If it is a stock rebuild and does not need the shafts bushed =
You could do it easily yourself. Many books are available that
would take you thru it.

If you decide to do it yourself - You could always PM me and I could help you thru it and I have 100 Cores on the shelf for parts.

I agree with you, John. Very nice of you to offer help.

A Harbor Freight ultrasonic is handy for cleaning. If an original finish is critical, research the correct solution to use in it. I use Simple Green, but that may alter the finish.

If you’re looking for a full restoration quality rebuild, look up Harms Automotive in Washington. It’ll look perfect when he’s done with it.
