    i just bought an air cleaner off of ebay and am not sure what it is from, but it was just so cool i had to have it. the listing said it was off of a 1955 desoto 4 barrel fireflite, but i couldn't find any pictures of it, and there are no identifying marks on it. does anyone know what it is from? thanks

    This is a 55 DeSoto Fireflite (4 barrel) air cleaner.

    Skeeter was actually looking for a DeSoto air cleaner for his 55 291, but found this one. It was misidentified in the add. This Cadillac piece is a beast, but it looks great on the hemi motor. We carefully dremeled the spot welds, and emptied the crap out of it. It's cleaning up great, and there are no dents. I think he can adapt a paper filter to it.
