For the carb check with our very own Sal Cicala here on the forum. Don't know if he messes with fuel pumps, wouldn't hurt to ask.

I checked my receipts and I had the fuel pump on my '54 239 Y-block rebuilt by a place in Weymouth, Mass. called Then and Now Automotive. None of the y-block fuel pumps I bought locally were the right configuration, I presume because of my early y-block. So I sent my original to Mass. to have it rebuilt. That was 15 years ago, and it's still working good, so I guess they did a good job. Here's their website. Hopefully they're still in business. If they aren't, please post that info so others will know.

I'd try calling them on the phone number. I think I originally contacted them through a Hemmings ad. I believe the person who did the work was named Mike, but I'm going off memory here. He was pretty nice to deal with, as I recall. They may not do that kind of work now, though.

I can do the carburetor, and Charlie ny should be able to do the fuel pump. Not sure what year car and carb you have. If it's a Holley 94 type or Stromberg 97, Chalie ny and Uncle Max have the most experiene and parts. I've been doing all domestic carbs for a long time.

I'm a brand new member. I was sent a link to this thread by a member of the '54 Ford Club of America. I have a 2 barrel that came on the 239 V8 that was in my car when I bought it. I also have one that is complete but might be called a basket case which might be rebuildable. I have been searching for a rebuilder of carbs for quite some time. Since I don't have 10 posts I can't send you a PM so I am trying this method.

CharlieNY's contact info has been posted before so I guess its OK to post it again.


Charlie ny....Charlie Schwendler

I've had Sal rebuild two carbs for me. He's a great guy, he does excellent work with a fast turn around.

Yes, I can rebuild your '54 239 Holley two barrel. Charlie ny also does these carbs. My email is: [email protected] Phone (586) 612-1650

Also, if your carb is a basket case, I don't have a lot of spare parts and parts carbs.
Charlie ny may be a better option if any of your castings are trashed.

You know, I wish you guys would/could advertise here. Is Charlie also the fellow that has a bunch of NOS and lives on Long Island?

Charlie ny (Charlie Schwendler) doess live in New York, but I believe it's more on the north east part of the state. Pretty sure the Buffalo or Rochester area ?
