I was on a trip one summer and went by Graceland. Decided to stop. Spent half a day there. Worth the time. Had no idea that guy had the awards he had. There is a little building, well not all that little but it was full of them and I mean full. Had some late '50's Cadillacs parked out back in the non-public parking lot.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
