As in "we don't want to mess around with this carburetor any more but we have something we make now that will work."

Meanwhile one gives up their GAV and hopes for the best with what they buy.

Small and dwindling marketshare in Model A land methinks. More money to be made elsewhere.

Well, it is the story of America...

I had noticed the difference in the lower bowl castings. For purposes of identification let's call the deeper one "Type D" and the shallower one "Type S."

Typestudies are the information battleground in the computer age. Always best to map out the terrain ahead of a frontal assault.

Heh. Both of my Marvel/Allstates are "Type S" with the pressed steel one piece throttle.

$3 - I still Marvel. (joke here.)
