Message: I dont care if its highly sort after, its UGLY and looks out of place on this vintage car! Did they come painted in body color too??? I am not familar with them. Some older aircleaners are valuable. The one for me 67 Birds sells for $275-$350 and my 66 Toronados dual snorkle air cleaner can fetch $125-$200 for a nice one!
