The air cleaner is worth nearly the asking price of the car.

damn i just priced out the round trip at $500 in gas.

john is right, thats a $$$ air cleaner. if the car were local i'd be on my way.

That's some hard 22,000 miles.....

There's a '56 Chrysler Nassau (wid a Hemi !) on the CL craigslist....and a '59 T-Bird convertible for around the same price. No money, no space, no understanding Wife.

That air cleaner looks like it's from an Olds or Cadillac of mid 50's vintage.

I've got a friend up here in Mi that has one on his 28 Ford sedan . They were a GM thing Olds , Pontiac , Cadillac . From approx 52 to 56 . They usually go for about $150.00 to $300.00 from what he says . Funny how when they are rusty he says they are worth more .
