The tube itself can be replaced with a similar size steel or copper line. IIRC a compression fitting would fit the carb. In your case a bit of epoxy would work if you can't find another carb top. Epoxy the line directly to it or cut a brass fitting end of and epoxy that on so you can still unscrew the choke tube. Clean the area to be epoxied thoroughly with paint thinner or mineral spirits first, and let the epoxy set for 24 hours.

Subject: [AMC-List] Choke thermostat heater tube
Hi All,
I was replacing my carb the other day and I broke the carb where
the
heater tube attaches for the choke. The threaded mounting stud
of the
carb broke off inside the heater tube threads.
What can I do to get a heater tube mounted to my new carb?
Where does
one find the right choke heater tube?
Thanks!
Sly

Frank I thought this was your last duty station till you retired?
"Doc"
It is Doc! "Deployments" and "TDYs" (Temporary DutY) aren't considered. Anything under six months is either a deployment (under six months in support of some operation overseas) or TDY (any temporary duty, so a deployment is a type of TDY, but not all TDYs are deployments...), not a PCS (permanent change of station -- long term) or short tour (6-18 months without family). I'll retire from service eight months after I get back -- 01 June 2007 is it!

Had a 1964 Tempest shipped to me last week, can't say enough nice
things about these guys. Company is Hazen Transport number is 313
292-2120. Drivers name was Bobby. He was more then willing to hang on
while I called the previous owner for a question or two, treated my car
like it was his and was super nice. If I EVER have to ship a car again
I'll be using them and asking for Bobby. Their rate from northeast Texas
was $810, DAS wanted $1250 and said they would be repeatedly loading and
unloading the car, Hazen loaded it once and kept it there till I got it.

Subject: [AMC-List] Hey, I actually won something! Now, car shipping
cost?
Hi, Guys:
For the first time in like forever, I actually WON something, and not on
Ebay. Yesterday, I won a stylin' 1962 VW Notchback, all for the cost of
a $20 raffle ticket. You can see a smallish pic of the car at
www.centralcoastvwclub.com/id237.htm (you have to scroll down) and - yes
- my name in lights!
The car is located in San Mateo, CA, and I'm in SW Michigan. My
question is, car shipping. Has anyone recently had a car shipped 2000
miles? I'm curious if with gas prices higher whether shipping costs
have increased significantly. Also, if you have a particular shipper
you're happy with, let me know! I know this has come up before, but
frankly I've not paid that much attention to the messages. Silly me.
If shipping costs are exhorbitant, I can fly out and drive back. I need
to talk more with the guy who ran the charity raffle, but the only thing
he mentioned was a "grabby" clutch. I have driven a variety of iffy
cars the 1200 miles from Colorado to Michigan, but of course this one is
like twice as far away, and I have no history with it, so I'm a little
hesitant.
- Justin

warning, scam auction! unfortunately the scammers use the seldom seen 'pre
approved bidders only' option. So go look at this one anyhows before it will
be shut down hee hee. And to think I had another $99 million to bid on this.

I'm short time here, so I'll keep it short -- these people have new,
unused, old stock Modine radiators for AMC & related for -- $30 each. I
needed one for our '72 Hornet (long dull story), found 'em on eBay,
bought one, called, got the whole story. Old non-moving stock, getting
out of paid storage after a business fire 2 yrs ago. Parts are in San
Louis Obispo.
Story seems straight-up. Haven't received mine yet. I asked for a list
of AMC/Rambler stock and here it is.
I was trying to post w/image URLs but that failed; may try again.

Short time here -- quick note -- had to locate a radiator on short
notice for the '72 Hornet, foudn one on eBay for !$30!, it's on it's
way. Liquidating old non-moving stock... I talked to the owner of the
shop and got the whole story, and asked her to email me a list of all
AMC radiator products. That list is below.
$30 each, claimed new in boxes. Mostly, or all, Modine.
I believe the list of JPEG images, attached, are converted properly to
links to the archive (a Mailman feature I've been meaning to test out).
We'll see...
Stuff is in San Luis Obispo, CA.

This may not work, or it may be too ugly to be usable, but you shouls
see a list of URLs to the radiator catalog pages, below:
