Default tri power carb rebuild

my 60 Bonneville has (3) Rochester 2 jet carbs that need rebuilding. I can not find any carb ID (missing tags and no stamping found). Does anyone know how to ID in order to buy correct rebuild kit?

That is helpful - thanks!

The car is new to me and therefore I can not assume factory casting numbers would necessarily be correct. Is there a way to confirm the carb model from other physical characteristics (shape, size, bolt locations, etc)? Or should I buy multiple rebuild kits and simply try to match parts?

The casting numbers for the float bowls are located behind the accelerator pump rod, just below the airhorn. The 1960 end carbs will be 7011997. Center carb will be 7019927 or 7019929. PM me and I will give you the prices of the kits. I can ship them this next week.

On many 7011997 end carbs, used from 1959 through 1963, the float bowl casting numbers are on the bottom, not the location I described in my last post. Sorry if that caused any confusion.
