What do you think is the best route or your experiance on having them redone...Wife is on my a$$ to get car road worthy as it hasn't seen sunshine in many years!!! 7594633-TAFISH022.jpg (88 downloads)

Soak them good, let them sit over-night. Get rid of any of the old gas, refill and fire it up. You'll probably want to pull the plugs and oil up the cylinder walls while you are at it.

Are they the original carbs ? Scott Smith restores carbs

I agree, they are very easy to rebuild, but you'd be surprise the number of sixpack carbs I've had to re-rebuild because someone FUBAR'd them during a rebuild,...I'd say if the "numbers/originality" matters, and properly rebuilding them is beyond one's realm of experience, send them out, the OP is looking for refinish as well, that's well beyond most hobbiest...if just function is your primary goal, and rebuilding them yourself is out of the question, new carbs are your best bet, then sell the old stuff to recoup some $$$ FYI...SummitRacing.com has good prices, last set I bought came in around $970 for 340/6 carbs
