65 Air Cleaner, AC parts
« on: February 04, 2020, 08:55:00 AM »
I'm trying to find a 65 air cleaner. As you can see from the pic, I have an old chrome one that doesn't even fit right.  Also notice that my AC Compressor is missing. (you can see the lines in the upper left corner)  I'm in need of basically all the engine-bay components for the AC system, except for the main bracket which is still there!

Hi GG!  I have several 65 GS air cleaners... I assume you need a AFB type air cleaner right?   I have chrome and black...
Which do you prefer??

How about a 69-72 GS quadrajet air cleaner minus all the fiberglass stuff of the front? Just looking for the dual snorkel base.   Bill

It's a 65. That's my engine in the pic at the start of this thread. I just redid all the seats, and tore out the old carpet.  Putting in rear seat belts for the youngsters,so the only seat in it right now is the driver's. With no carpet or console reinstalled yet! But good enough for me to drive to the store.

That?s what we did, put long seatbelts in the back so the grandkids can ride along!
