Knowledge is power. This is why our club is so important.

 

He would tell you that it's correct for a Model T if he could sell another $2000 plastic air cleaner housing.

My guess is that he is a salesman first, a car guy second. He doesn’t have the passion you have for accuracy. His only concern now might be adverse publicity.

I have been burned  buying “factory correct” parts just because I assumed the seller knew what he was talking about.

Keep on Stickling !!!!

For those of you who were following the discussion on this:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/BATWING-DUAL-QUAD-CARB-AIR-CLEANER-CADILLAC-PACKARD-CHEVROLET-BELAIR-CHRYSLER-/171723638988?hash=item27fb86c8cc&vxp=mtrI

I contacted the seller and asked for a photo of the Chrysler unit.  His reply was:

The black assembly in the listing is actually the correct design for the Packard and Chrysler.
Regards, Dave

My reply to his answer:

Dave,

Thank you for your reply but your information is not correct. The Chrysler Letter Car examples for both 1955 and 1956 has four indented ribs running fore and aft. As per Chrysler historical records they did not use the term Batwing but DeltaWing to describe this filter.

So here is yet another example of what happens when people don't do their home work.
