Default '57 Tripower End Carb Wanted

Does anyone have a Rochester Tripower end carb from a '57 or '58 Pontiac setup to sell? I believe a Chevrolet end carb from '58 or '59 would work as well. Also, '57/'58 Olds J2 end carbs are the same as Pontiacs.

I could use just the airhorn or a complete carb to complete a '57 setup I'm building. I've attached a picture of a fairly original '57 setup to show you what the end carbs look like.

Thanks.

If anyone has an airhorn, complete end carb, or any '57/'58 Tripower parts, please contact me.

These are not end carbs, but the pics show the tops of two carbs that I have. They appear to be from that era. One is complete, the other has no base.

Let me know if they are useful.

They are much better than what I have. I would have no problem with blocking off the choke shaft holes, but the vent is not so simple. I guess I could leave the one as is--I have another mushroom cover for the one that has it missing.

Can you post some pictures of the setup? I would be interested if the price is right. They have the same carbs as Pontiac used in '57/'58.
