For what its worth, we have been running a Tillotson "JR4 A" on our 29 for as many years as I can remember, Im pretty sure dad said the Carter was "a mongrel of a thing!"   those would be his words

This is a JR5 A which is for a 6cyl, but I bought it just in case it might fit our car some day, it looks exactly the same to me as the 4A



I notice there is a Carter up on auction at the moment, I think it may be the correct one for the 28Q best you do some checking first, maybe ask some of the experts here
Ebay Auction  No is  270278620294
Good luck
George

PS this auction only has 2 day to run...

Hi folks
I was actually doing a search for parts when to my surprise I stumbled across this site, WOW !
A forum just for us guys, I must say Im very happy about this and look forward to searching through all the old posts, sharing information, and learning as much as I can

Ours is the 29 model, my father bought this car in In New Zealand in 1968, (it had been fully restored 6 months previous), and has done numerous vintage car rallies, weddings, and even used as a daily driver in this period.
I must say it has served our family extremely well up untill now, having recently reconditioned the motor, clutch, brakes, radiator ect, I expect she is ready to serve the next generation of our family just as proudly!
I am currently living in Australia, and am in the process of bringing her over here, where eventually we will reside in Tasmania, (thank goodness for the hydralic brakes )

Hopefully I can work out how to post a picture here...
kind regards

George
