OEM 1955-57 Pontiac Star Chief/Chieftan/860/870/Safari oil bath air cleaner in excellent condition. This assembly has been refinished to the original look of the 1955-57 cars featuring the four barrel oil bath air cleaners. The base features a very clean interior, clear "fill oil" marks, a very clean oil bath filter, and an OEM gasket. The top features the correct recessed starburst lines, an exceptionally straight intake barrel, and a GM licensed reproduction service decal featuring the correct Pontiac script. The insert has been cleaned throroughly (mineral spirits as per the OEM instructions) and is ready to use. The inside of the starburst is exceptional - hard to believe this assembly is over 55 years old! The last picture details the condition of the assembly after media blasting - no rust and no dents; it only retains the factory impressions. Also includes a period correct wing nut to secure to the carburetor stud (not included).


As an added bonus, the assembly comes with the correct mounting bracket,adapter, and bolt-making it 100% ready/complete for installation.


Pictures depict the state of the assembly after media blasting - there was no rust and absolute minimal surface issues on the entire assembly (a very rare condition). 


This assembly is in exceptionally nice condition and will enhance your restoration. Best of all, it is a rare and Genuine GM part! 


Please be sure to include your choice of bases - two or four barrel!
