While researching 7027273 I ran across this posting. Those problems with your original carb can be repaired.

I took the card to a local shop that has been rebuilding carbs for 20+ years and he wasn't too optimistic. However, he did not have any parts available to fix the affected areas either.

Can you recommend a good rebuilder?

Try and post a picture of the bad inlet and maybe one of our members can give advice. I have a '67 carb where the inlet is very thin and my carb guy says he can still salvage it. The broken throttle shaft is a minor problem unless it's rusted into the base plate. Even then I know a guy who can remove it. Is your carb a Rochester or Carter?
