Welcome from t-town in okla. besides the carb IMO your gonna have to do a complete brake system over haul new master cylinder and wheel cylinders also. I would also replace the rubber lines for the brakes. Check all the fuel lines also for rotting hoses.

Thanks again everybody!
Foghorn, you are right on the money, I picked up a carb rebuild kit today, and the brakes are a little further down the road, but the pedal just goes to the floor with no resistance, so I will probably replace everything, and may convert to power brakes at the same time.

Mine was sitting for 3 yrs and the wheel cylinders were full of rust. I also did a complete fluid change on the brake system. I wanted to make sure i wasn't going to have any problems later down the road.
