on older ones (pre-emission controls) there really isn't a lot that goes wrong, assuming they are clean and the few moving parts are OK. There is lots of info on carbs on vintage car sites, and on the older Saab boards here. Nice thing about them is that they are rebuildable for a few bucks.
If you have duals you have to synchronize them, but in my experience they can be pretty well out of synch and still work OK. I had a pair of SUs on my '66 Volvo Amazon that were acting up and I took them off, cleaned them up and put them back on in a coupla hours. No biggie.
Worry not! Go forth and carburate!
