RE: HP air cleaner |

I like Barry's description - a Helmet. We around these parts have been referring to it as the "Cake". It has layers and layers crowning to a ..... Helmet! I have been told that there are even some unique features of the 1960 HP air cleaner compared to the '61 - '62. But the crazy thing is so hard to find, I'm not sure.
The one jPeg I have is too large to post. It's of a complete early HP 390. I keep the picture on my desk top just to remind me to keep looking. This pic is thanks to Greg also.
A lot of the older magazines/Hot Rod year books have pictures. The 1962 Hot Rod Yearbook has a great picture on page 17. It's right next to a picture of a 1960 HP intake they claim is a 406 intake. A file photo!
Also an oddity in this Hot Rod No. 2 Yearbook, is on page 12, a great shot under the hood of a supposed '62. Tri Power 406. Right valve cover off and adjustables in plain view. A nice looking set of headers. And right behind that last header tube on the right side.......A dip stick!! It's definitely an automatic trans car. What is with that?
I'd sure appreciate anyone that could post a pic of an early HP air cleaner too. |
