Re: 1929 6-33 fuel issue

Thanks for the advice - I would dearly like to go back to the original as I am a believer in keeping things stock, but that may not be in the cards over the short term given my search for a tank is turning fruitless. In the meantime, as predicted, I am getting gas drip out of the carb when I try to start it. Therefore either the existing pressure regulator is letting too much fuel through and inundating the float and needle valves OR I have a stuck float OR both issues.

After looking online at the carbs for the 1929, I do not see the carb that I have on this vehicle. Any ideas on which carb this is?? I am reluctant to go too deep into it until I know I am able to obtain parts or at a minimum a gasket set.
