Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just an FYI, they all didn't come from the factory with black air cleaner lids.
Sorry, I recall that thread, while it was a very cool car I'll maintain that those and all other steel air cleaner equipped cars had lids that were black from the factory.
That car looks vintage race correct, but that picture is not solid proof of factory correctness, It's obvious that it already had a number of modifications, it's HIGHLY likely that the owner pulled them off, masked off the decals, and sprayed them red/orange.
A--- I am the original owner ( documented ) - and unless someone painted the lids before it hit the showroom floor ( I personally drove it off the Chrysler dealerships showroom floor in 63 with orange air cleaner lids )thats the color ( same orange as the engine and valve covers )the cleaner lids came with from the factory. BTW, the pic was taken before I made any modifications what so ever to the car.
