Zenith carb or parts:help

Hey all, I have ventured back into the MB gasser world after a 17 year break.
And what a way to get back in, I just picked up a '71 250/8 basket case, after the initial shock I decided to get it running, I replaced all fuel lines and somehow formed two carbs out of the pile of parts and to my surprise it started right up! the front carb had a cracked bowl which I have heli-arced back together for now, the rear carb has a coat hanger for a linkage to the throttle plate which is holding me back from getting the carbs in sync. So if anyone has a spare linkage or an entire rear carb (the vacuum dashpot adjuster is missing also) I would love to strike a deal.
Thanks, James

Well it's been a month lets try again, I've had no luck finding the linkage and the weather is starting to turn, and the nieghbors are starting to talk. I will gladly return any parts purchased free of charge to the sellers if this thing ends up not being road worthy. Thanks, James
