Hello everyone, new to this group. I was given my grandfathers 1948 ford super deluxe. It has a 239 FH with a Holley 94 carb. The carb needs to be replaced but I can not find any vendors that have new carbs for purchase. Can anyone help me out here?

You have three options for a replacement carburetor: 1. Have your current carburetor rebuilt by a competent rebuilder. 2. Buy a new 94 type carburetor made offshore, probably in China which fits 1938-48 Fords for $150 from Third Gen. 3. Buy a new American made 94 carburetor which fits 1949 to 53 Fords V-8s for $650. If you buy this carburetor from Van Pelt, you will have to change the throttle shaft and levers to fit the throttle linkage of your 1948 Ford passenger car. https://thirdgenauto.com/product/1938-48-ford-replacement-holley-94-style-carburetor/

Looking at the Carb. there should be other numbers or letters that identify the Carb. model, such as "59" a couple photos of the Carb could also identify it and all the connections to it as being for the 48 Ford. Yes Charlie Schwindler in NY is the place to get a good rebuild, If you want to DIY Daytona Auto parts in Fla is the place to buy rebuilding kits and pieces for the Carb.

You have a great looking car and girl friend. If it were my car, I would send the carb to Charley for a rebuild. His rebuilds are mostly plug and play, install it and start driving.

Ditto on the NICE LOOKING CAR !! Send the carb to Charlie as others have said. You will be glad you did. Then drive the wheels off of that really cool Ford.
