As stated, any Motorcraft or Autolite you find is going to be a rebuilt unit. There are several carb rebuilders who would likely have one in stock. I use A&G Carburetors out of Chicago.
A brand new carb is going to be an aftermarket one like Holley or Edelbrock.
You can actually buy a brand new 2150 copy on ebay for under 100.00 It looks like a clone to me. Ive never tried one but they seem to get good reviews.
I keep an eye out on Ebay for good cores. I have a list of original Bronco carb numbers that I keep an eye out for and try to find ones that still have the tag attached and look to be unmolested. I have a few decent cores laying around. I may be interested in parting with one.
I'D SAY KEEP AN EYE ON OUR CLASSIFIED HERE. Our members here sell good ones after they put EFI ONTO THEIR Broncos.
Most of the time price seems OK & SINCE WE'RE SUCH A CLOSE KNIT GROUP. Most every one tells the truth. Since if it's nothing like advertised you can tell your store against his name. Then other members watch out for him fast.

I tried one of the New "clone" 2150 carbs and it was awful. It looked nice but ran worse than my cracked original. I even took it apart and cleaned it out but could never get it to idle right. I ended up going to a 4bbl Holley but still wish I could have found a good original 2150.
I had major issues with my worn out 2100 found a copy on amazon for under 50 $ had to try it ,it came with an electric choke and a little modifying made it fit my cable system ,it ran a little rich out of the box ,soldered up the main jets and re drilled them to a jet drill size of 64 ,down from 70 .it has been on my bronco for about 2 yrs now and not a hiccup or issue ,it gets an average 20 mpg if I keep my foot out of the gas and keep it under 70 on the road .my bronco is my DD with lots of offroad thrown in.maybe I got lucky don't know I don't know of any others that run one .
I was going to PM you this weekend about the engine, transmission and other stuff I pulled out of mine. Rebuilding one isn't very hard, I'll PM you today and maybe I can help.
