The Ford Barn

My '53 Ford stopped running on the road recently. The motor died as if it had run out of gas. The pump is getting gas through the hose and there is spark. This leads me to believe that there is a carburetor problem.

The carb I have has worked well for the 7 or 8 years it's been on the motor with no signs of trouble. I don't know much about carburetors, and I'm not confident enough to rebuild it myself. Would someone please make a recommendation for a rebuild service for an EAB V8 carburetor. Is ken ct still doing this? I am in southeastern Massachusetts and would prefer not to send the unit across the country if I don't have to.

Thank you.
