I am have trouble visualizing where glass goes . Your close up is to close . Is that metal going to touch the glass or back up the tape holding it in some how ?  Did you remove any sealant ?
   To me sealant should go against exterior metal to waterproof .  Then glass , then maybe fold over or and more seal , then something ie. metal clips or tabs to keep from sagging or popping lose . But never metal to glass .

Yes it looks like one . Only sure way to tell is remove bowl and get idle jet , well jet and multi jet numbers from the exposed buttons . With them I can look up in book .

Chet , do a search on AACA  on butyl + window . Some great dissusions on round vs flat vs newer urethane .Also cleaner and existing .

Good pics , especially back spring hook up . I added a length of loom over the spring . Just scared me being right above starter /battery terminal . If adjust slides lose and it drops on it will be like a toaster coil or a sparkler , neither any good .

Best i could get from my archive . If need can shoot different angle .

Ok . I see most of the parts there . Lets work from carb back . The rod on right side your holding is fine . It  would not have had a swivel on carb end just a bend ell. Hooked in to hole with washer and cotter pin ,maybe a hole liner . The back look complete . The driver side is where the one spring goes . That rod going forward to engine block coolant access cover goes from there down to the attachment  ,which is not in frame , on the end of steering column . This is for hand throttle on steering wheel . That rod going back you see all the to left is a tear drop shaped spring adjuster . Spring goes to rear at 90* turn of control and stretches on the tear drop adjuster to desired pull. Looking  for pic .

I had a zenith on mine too . It works great . In process of changing out . Pics of both side of engine needed to see what you have . Spring on my 4 cly is on opposite side of engine of carb .

 Chet , you are correct . I check my book of info and pic shows same vertical ribs .
Question , I do not see it on your pic . But does any one have a close up and measurements of the drivers door lock latch , next to handle . It is just out of you pic s frame . It does show on mine ?

No my engine idles fine without choke , it's adjustablity . When carb was rebuild they used and idle tube and standpipe from Chevy RJH a smaller carb for smaller engine . Nobody sells correct parts .
    I simply drilled the idle jet ( bottom ) hole to same size as DRT209 jet . The top horizontal hole ( bypass) for air was correct size . The hardest was inner vertical restriction ( economizer) .  That had to be reduced from drill size #53 to #56 . That reduction is probability done with a tool similar to knurl er . I hand rolled and did get it reduced , but broke in process so then silver soldered back together . I went though this extra step to get my carb idle adjustment to be in a sweet spot to adjust . I have not yet reassembled to test . My carb ran with screw closed to 1/4 open best and it should be coming out more . Also this larger volume of mixed fuel also kept idle higher . With out that full adjustment it is hard to tell if I am truly adjusted the best it can be .
   At same time I noticed the other missing parts and fact of missing holes in standpipe that are in DRT's
I figured while apart to get it back as much as possible to original DRT spec .

You can see the left corner one in Chet's factory interior print at top . Part number 33164 on trucks uses five four corner and top center on mine you see. A hole was punched in matting that fit snugly over stud . This made matting removable . My matting not original . I believe should be horizontal ribs as Russ T.'s
