Hi Guys , ive just bought a nice original survivor 59 Fireflite Coupe and ive just discovered now that I have the car that someone changed the carb .
The carb number I need for it is 2794s . That number is written down on the front ledge of the base just under where it bolts on .
The car was taken off the road decades go it seems as it has a faulty starter and never fixed . So I will try and repair it first and if not may be looking for one of these also . Ive seen high torque starters on ebay that say they suit 59-61 Chrysler , but the number they apparently suit MDT-6001 are for 59 firesweep which didn't have the starter on top originally . The new high torque starter does have a solenoid , but I didn't want to spend so much money unless someone may know if these will in fact fit right . The starter I need was originally number MDT-6002.
Thanks in advance . My shipping address is in Atlanta Georgia .
Here is a pic of the car
