"Factory Orange Paint"?!?!? Really? I was not aware that the carbs were painted with the engine. And...I've never bought a NEW Holley that had orange(or any other color) paint on it like that. Something strange with that one.
IF....that's a BIG IF, it IS an NOS part, the price is right where it should be, however....IF it is NOS, I doubt very seriously that it is in working condition as is. Chances are every gasket and rubber piece in it is useless....
You might check with Chuck Smith and see if they have anything in stock.....no matter where you find one, if you find the correct one, it ain't gunna be cheap.
