Default My Carb...before and after!

I was having a problem with whistling coming from my carb while driving the Chevelle. I PM'ed Eric Jackson ( Vintage Musclecar on this site) and explained to him what I was experiencing. He told me what was most likely wrong with the carb...and so when I had to go to Las Vegas last weekend...I decided to pull the carb and send it to him for a rebuild and restoration.

It turns out that the throttle shaft bushings were almost gone...and the baseplate was warped. Either and/or both could have caused the problem that I was experiencing.

Anyways, here are 3 shots of the carb as I was taking it off to send to Eric.
