Any place to get a base for a q-jet?

The base of my q-jet looks FUBAR, but the rest is still good. Right now I run a Holley and like it, but I have to get e-checked this month and don't know if they will say anything about the non-stock carb. They may not, so I won't need to re-build the q-jet, but if they do, I'll need to find a new base. Anyone got a webpage?

yeah, junkyard is your best bet. I have an old parts carb, but the reason i never used it for long was the throttle shafts need to be re-bushed. You're just as likely to find a better shape one locally.
