[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img] Yup, that has to be the world's rarest air cleaner lid. Those hubcaps with the plastic &quot;cereal bowl&quot; insert only came on 15&quot; wheel equipped Dodge's and Plymouths in 1969 ordered with the Deluxe Wheel Cover option. Which means that hubcap most likely came from a Hemi car since the hemi B-Bodies came with the mandatory 15&quot; wheels in 1969.

Gee, I wonder if his next project is to convert a 1970 L78 Camaro air cleaner into a hubcap? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Oh, wait a minute that gives me an idea on what to do with that original 1966 W30 dual snorkel air cleaner sitting in the basement. I have been meaning to fix the leak in my toilet air vent in the old RV. I could plumb it to the dual exhaust vents. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]


Here's a shot of my old 1969 hemi Daytona with those hubcaps. It took me two years to find enough pieces to make a full set.

Sadly, I am the proverbial Job of the Automotive Old Testament. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

I got to find and restore all these rare old cars and then sold them cheap, so that they could later make other people rich!
