I know the '73 Z's had open element filters on the Qudrajets. It reminds me of the '70 model air cleaner. (by the way, mine was silver w/ black guts)

that is the 74 Z28 air cleaner (another one year only item), smaller diameter and shorter &quot;snouts&quot; than the 70-72 air cleaners

as you state, the 73 had an open element, it was (the base anyway) a one year only item that was designed to clear the EGR valve ...

COOL picture Bill!!!

I have similar picture of 2 73's, a 74 LT Z and my 70 all lined up in my driveway, probably taken in 81 or so. (I need to dig it out and scan it)

2 were mine, my 70 &amp; an a/c black 73 (winter &amp; summer cars). I bought the other 73 (green original paint) for my classmate from GMI (now Kettering) to drive while he and his wife were in Phoenix for the start of their vacation &quot;out west&quot; (they are from MI) I talked my girlfriend into buying the 74 LT Z28 for her car. All 4 speeds, no one I knew ever considered buying an automatic Z28 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
