I need to get a kit to rebuild the carb on my 61 235CI. There is no manufacturer name on it. The only number that I can find is on the base at the front of the carb. That appears to be 003838. The attached picture is of a rebuilt tag that is where the manufacturer usually puts a tag on. I need help in identifying it so that I can rebuild it.

Hi Gary

It appears that the complete AutoLine rebuilt carburetor is still listed and available at places like NAPA.

And they list it as a Rochester BC

That's not much info, but I hope it helps.

Additionally, there is a member of the VCCA who is a great source for the right and the best kit for your carburetor.

I'm adding a link to the contact page on his website for your convenience.

And here is his page listing carbs and kits for 1961 235's (is yours a manual or automatic transmission?)

If that 003838 is actually 003538 (sometimes these numbers can be difficult to read), it is the CASTING number for a throttle body for a carburetor which would have originally had the tag number 7003526. This carburetor was original equipment on 1952 Chevrolet with 235.
