Wanted: Holley 1904 for a F-Head

• CATEGORIES: wanted This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Anyone have the right 1904 Holley (or 1909?) for the f-head installation into a flattie?  I’m trying to help a reader find one.

If I understand correctly, these are the correct carb numbers: R-2003A und R-2003-1A (Ford p / n of CODE-9510B or CODE-9510D)

Here are some links with information about the Holley carb / f-head / flattie install

This had a V8 swap in it. It has very early data plates, which suggests it was a VEC.  It also has the tool indents. I can’t tell if it has a column shift still or not. It has the square washers on the windshield.

An Armoured CJ-5 Photo on eBay

Steve spotted this photo of an Armoured CJ-5 used by Armoured Banking Services to transport cash.  On July 26th, 1966,  this jeep was used to ferry cash to the Veterans Administration. A couple of men decided to make a withdrawal from the two employees carrying the cash into VA building, knocking them down with a submachine guns.  You can read the whole story in the article below the eBay photo.
