biggrin I thought you'd get a kick out of that.

Rat Boy's sense of humour wasn't as good; he probably would have been upset I pointed that out!

I would say over 1,000. The City of Toronto garbage guy got 99% of them and scrapped them. One day there, next day gone. You know those metal Garden Sheds? Hillar had one that was absolutely jammed with carbs, about 6x9 jammed with Quadrajets. Pretty much all of the metal parts went to this guy, Stacks of Rally Wheels taller than me, GTO fenders, valances and quarters, hoods , bumpers, you name it, the guy even scrapped the nice wheels off the late model Z28 and summer wheels for the Subaru. We bought the garage contents from Hillar's Dad and there were a few milk cartons full, 4 or 5 five per carton - 18  carbs, 6 sbc, 3 bbc. 3 Pontiac 400/455 and 6 Buick 455 800cfm. There were a few more but they have been given to Canadian Poncho friends. I think Willie put one on that nicely restored Camaro numbers match he did LOL!

Picture the show "Buried Alive" x 10 to get an idea of Hillar's place. It is very sad every time I think about how emotionally damaged he was and dying all alone like that with that 44 Magnum nearby.

Hillar knew Quadrajets cold and I learned from him. One time at a a swap he bought a carb for $15 which the vendor was asking $25. He later put it on ebay and got over $1,000 for it...#7040270 if you can believe it.
