I fixed my 58 W200 this week, I hadn't had a big desire to work on it since the fire and have basically just let it sit while the W100 got some attention(much needed i might add) i finally fixed all the wires in the W200 and it fired up when i poured some gas down the carb. i also was able to get rid of the piece of crap holley carb that was the source of the fire. i installed the old carter off of my W100 and the truck seems to be running decent, but the carter carb is in bad need of a rebuild, so we'll see if it shoots a gas geyser too(I HOPE NOT!! THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER IS CLOSE AT HAND!!) if so I guess I'll have to do a rebuild before the old owner buys it back. he offered $1250 for it but, I have to have at least $1350 to make a decent clearing on it. anyone else interested?? go to erics power wagon page to see pics, do it quick it may get sold tomorrow, or later this week!(I hope) Jason
