Carbs like anything else are worth what someone will pay. It all depends on condition, rarity,demand. I have bought several rough looking 10-20 carbs for $25ea and one (1928 version)turned out to have been rebuilt but looked bad on the outside. I took it apart and cleaned the brass in phosphoric acid and it looks mint now. It might bring $200 to the right person if I wanted to sell it. I have a super rare Bijure, generator for an early brass era car about 1910-1015 or so. Never seen another one except on a 1914 packard and the tag on that one said Bijure/packard, the one I have doesn"t say packard on it. Don"t know what it fits, if it works, or what it is worth. If I put a price on it and it sells right away, I either sold it too cheap or I found the right person who needs it. Some restoration parts places seem to be out of sight for carbs and the like. One for my 1924 Olds a place wanted $600 for a rebuilt carb for it. I told them to stuff it. I will find one eventually.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
