Am chasing a starter motor for my 1940 41 Chev 6cyl 215 engine i think. Old one is to costly to repair and it has the starter cast bracket broken as well. Also need a carbie kit for the standard Carter Carbie. Who could i contact that may have parts.
cheers Shaun |

G'day Shaun,
Been through this recently, Kits for W1's are available from this bloke http://www.classiccarbs.com.au/ Not sure how familiar you are with the W1 but heres a couple of things I learned after rebuilding one. Be very patient with the brass slotted head fittings you'll have to remove to get into the circuits and ports. If you burr them (badly) they will prob never come off. In which case a lot of Carbie cleaner & compressed air will have to do. The kits (off this guy) come with only the accelerator port brass fitting but it does have all the gaskets you will need and an accelerator pump. Two suggestions...... hunt around for a siezed or broken W1 - and get out any of the brass fittings you can. Heat the carbie with an oxy then squirt the WD40 on the fittings - should free them up before you attack them with a screwdriver. Might be telling you how to suck eggs - hope it goes smoothly

Hi Shauno - don't know whether you received my PM 5 May, but you probably will also need this.
