    Identify Buick 1949 Super 50 Original Carburetor

    Hello Everyone.

    I am a Newbie.

    I just got a 1949 Buick Super 50 Convertible.

    I cannot figure out the carburetor on it as casting is not clear and top part is made by ford which means it is replace / Modified. It is leaking and causing startup delay. Please see attached pictures.

    What carb should I buy, that will fit this car configuration. I would like to go with an original restored one.

    BUICK 1949 Super 50 Convertable:
    VIN: 15069306
    Engine Casting: 53375615

    There is a Buick carburetor list in the "Reference Section".

    Thanks guys.

    I checked the reference, but there are two models suggested for the 1949 Buick Super 50 Convertible. The Carter or Stromberg. I live far away from the US, and once shipped it will be not feasible for me to exchange.

    Thanks all.
