<VV> Cave car question

[Ken Clark]

I recently ended up with a new fuel pump for the '60's and early '61 Corvair.  I do not have a Corvair that use this item.  It's the one with the 7/16" end and is still in the box with instuctions that it is for the cars listed above.  Any interest let me know and make an offer.
