Vatermac, Check around, last time I checked most rebuilders were charging more than $50 for a core charge for a 91-99. I think that the going price is more in line with Kube's estimate than Ken's.

Vatermac.ive been buying 91-99'S at swaps for 25 yrs and always buy at $10 -$30. Ebay prices are up in the clouds imo. People that pay $75 to $100 for them are fools. Cores don't command those prices. And I don't sell cores all that I sell are cores I rebuilds with all usa corn gas proof componants. Thank you ken ct.

Quote by KenCT: Your right in a way. 91-99 did come out in 39 but was not produced by ford or holley. It is a rare bird made by "Chandler-Groves" and is so marked as such.This is pretty well known in the hobby by many. ken ct. This is a misconception that some (many) continue to perpetuate. The fact of the matter is the Chandler Groves carburetor was REPLACED for the 1939 model year with a similar carburetor built by both Holley and Ford. While it certainly may be possible a number of C-G carburetors were installed upon very early 1939 Fords, the fact that the C-G was obsoleted for 1939 is non-refutable. And, by the way, as far as value goes... used 91-99 carburetors that appear to be very worthy of rebuilding typically fetch between $75 - $100 on eBay. Model 59 carbs typically bring about half of what a 91-99 carb fetches in similar condition. Hope this information helps and possibly clears up a common misconception. Mike Kubarth

PS Allen C.G. 91-99's go for about double the price for cores when you can find them compared to the ford-holley ones.They are pretty rare. ken ct.

I'll purchase the 91-99 for the above sum if your selling. $25 plus your shipping. Im assumeing its rebuildable and fairly complete. I have many 59's so don't need that one. ken ct. email or call cell 1-203-260-5945

Ken made an oversight regarding the 91-99, which was initially introduced for use on the '39 Ford and Mercury.
