Found this in the warehouse last weekend. I have a few questions below if anybody can help. Thanks in advance.
Don't recall what exact car it was on, but it was a police car and i dont remember which one: a 1977 GF or a 1978 B-Body Monaco/Fury.
Nick's garage ID's the base as 1976-1977 police -- probably used in 1975 he thought and carried over to 1978 in the B's (i know this to be true on the B's).
Questions:
(1) any of you ever seen/heard tell of a chrome air cleaner lid on a cop rig (or any Mopar) of 1975(?)-1978 vintage? (before you answer see the last pic at very bottom of this post)
(2) Also, what' up with pic 6 -- where the Lean Burn "box" went? my '77 GF cop cars still have theirs so that looks like the spot for it. Somebody improvised to let more air in it seems.
Postscript. The chrome lid: that was the lid on the car when i got it. Rumor was some cop cars had them from the factory. I still was gonna call it a AM part .. UNTIL Nick's page showed this factory pic of a 78-79 Lil Red Truck.
Air cleaner base is a bit different (pass side snorkel is longer) but it had a chrome lid that was available in 1978 MY. yes? I've never seen under the hood of Lil Red Truck that's 100% original.
