351w 2bbl intake

I did a 4bbl swap on my 79 a little back and still have the carb and 2bbl intake. Is there really a market for these 2bbl deals?I know some people like to stay all stock and keep them so if anyone is interested let me know. And sorry if this isn't the right area

79flat,
There is a market for them in California where the California SMOG checks for 1976 and newer vehicles, requires original engine configuration. I sold an Ford OEM 2 barrel intake manifold (DTE7) about three months ago,

I second that Ialbert ill never move there on my own accord unless the military sends me there. Rtchallenger, The carb is an autolite if I remember right and it is in good condition I just got it put up somewhere in my shop. I did a rebuild on it earlier before I did the 4bbl swap but it backfired, maybe the carb or the ignition as when I did the swap I may have had 2 cylinders firing at the right time while the others weren't so I never figured it the real cause of it since the truck got me to my new home and didn't have any major concerns once I got it there.
