Carb kit

I have a 59 f100 with a 223 and the original carb on it. The truck runs but gas pours out of the carb. Does anyone have a good idea where to get a carb kit for this, it has the original carb with the glass bowl on it. Kinda cool so I want to keep it original as long as possible.

Randy, I buy carb kits for my 48 at NAPA. You should be able to get one for your 223 at one of the suppliers.

Darned if you do, darned if you dont

Hi, before you decide to rebuild this carb of yours, make sure your throttle plate bushings are o.k. or your wasting your time rebuilding it. You can replace the bushing, but it takes a little time. My 51's 2 barrel, I found a rebuilt over the counter at my local parts store. Good luck
