What Carburetor Do I Have? 1957

[Bertone]

Hello all. New to this forum and new to owning a classic Thunderbird. Rebuilding a 57 engine. The engine that was in the car was a 292, not the original engine or correct size. The car was purchased originally with the 312, which I have been able to find and now in the final stages of rebuilding the 312. The 292 was not rebuildable. Now comes the carburetor. I would like to rebuild it, but I cannot find a model number or even manufacture name. Thinking it may be a Carter, but I’m not sure. Since the motor was replaced, I don’t have confidence this is the original carb. I have included some pictures, so hoping someone can look at these and identify what I have.

Thanks - BertOne

Tbird suppliers, CASCO, NPD, Concours Parts all sell new replacements for your 57. That carb is not original to your car.
