Vintage air scoops, air cleaners......

Saw one at Carlisle yesterday. 500.00 asking price.

 

This is what happens when you skip the meds in the morning

had buddy use
4 4 1/2? Weatherhead EMT Rigid Electrical Conduit covers.

you can get em in different sizes & angles,just gut em.

 

The local industrial plumbing supply house?

 

that is sweet !!! its got me thinkin of makein something like that to use as a hat on my 6x2's for a blowthru paxton setup ???

 

This thread inspired me to do this!

 

Anybody actually have any pics of the Hellings and Stelling air cleaners with the helmeted cupolas being used back in the day? They're by far my favorite air cleaner I just cannot think of any cars that actually ran them.

 

This was on my 38 Chevy coupe, it found a new home

 

I have one of these but I thought it was for a Dominator. I see yours has a little collar adaptor. Any chance of a better shot of that piece?

 

velocity stacks.

 

Now, I like that! May have to borrow that idea for my OT 66 Impala longroof.

 

I can't believe no one's posted one of these yet.

 

That is one beautiful looking scoop. It might have had a hole in the base large enough for the Dominator and then adaptors for smaller carbs like the 5 1/8 "late models".

 

Made this one last week for a Dodge pickup with a blower. Not very sexy but it looks good on the truck.

 

Had this one for a while,,,one my Fathers.
Still trying to identify it

 

Dont know if these are cool or not,or how vintage.. but I dig um..

 

homemade copper air cleaner > belly tanker

 

I have admired, and wanted one of Red Greth's original Speed Sport scoops for well over 45 years. Red graciously agreed to make one for me from his original mold, and here he is today about to autograph it for me at the CHRR. I am honored to own this piece of history.

 

here are mine on a 331 hemi 8x2 dragstar intake

 

Should have bought it. The last one on Ebay was $1500 BIN and sold in a day.

I have one and wouldnt even think of selling for under a grand.

 

here is mine, it's an original Edelbrock M535 (old curved script)

 

An old Cal Custom scoup with a twist... They say things are better ribbed
I turned the risers out of billet to fit the small flange OEM AFB's. A good look for a 409

 

Better late than never, Miles. Here's a shot of the collar adapter.

 

Thanks, way stouter than I imagined.

 

hi, i'm desperate in finding an item i need, do anyone out there has a set of tear drop air scoops ( need 3 ) that are for sale? i'm doing a multiple card job and want to finish the look with those air scoops.

 

Cal-Custom Panther scoop with a 1/8" aluminum plate on the bottom attached to an air cleaner spacer.

 

here's my fancy moon disc air cleaner top with a $50.00 K&N underneath. I saw the car for sale on ebay after I sold it and it was gone, replaced with a taiwan cheapo chrome top and paper filter, my 6 month old fitted radiator hose was replaced with a flex hose. I figure the new owner must have taken it somewhere to get "checked out" and paid good money to replace good parts with inferior ones.

 

Surprised non of the other Hudson guys posted pics of their Twin H air cleaners. Mine are the later 55-56 Hash cleaners - only slightly miss-matched and still mostly straight.

 

Here are mine on my 331 Hemi.

 

heres mine, i don't know how Barris made his or if they were bought but i made these myself

 

I just picked up 3 nos badger 2bbl scoops....score!
