DESCRIPTION

 

OEM 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Seville 390 Tripower Air Cleaner. The assembly has been media blasted and refinished in gloss gold to present a period correct image. The dual snorkels with round inserts are in excellent condition and retain all of the factory spot weld marks where they were attached to the base, as well as those that attach the internal air baffles to the snorkel itself. The base is very clean and features the air ride supsension nipple, as well as the various indentations as stamped by the factory. It also features the prominent number "9" stamped above each snorkel, indicating year of production/use. 


The tri-power carburetor flanges feature the staggered large outside flanges with smaller center flange - correct for the Cadillac applications with Rochester carburetors. This assembly is specific to 1959 cars due to the location of the twin inserts found on the ends of the snorkels, as well as the single wing nut well on the lid. 


An original OEM lid presents nicely and enhances the assembly. It features the correct single wingnut well and filter ridges. 


As an added bonus, an NOS OEM A59C AC Delco air filter replete with ridged indented filter nomenclature completes the package, along with a period correct wing nut.  

 

This assembly is very nice and appears as an original (not over-restored like most)- it will enhance your restoration. Best of all, it is a very rare and genuine GM part! 


Many of our parts are available only once - we cannot predict if/when another will become available due to the scarcity of original parts. The old adage "here today, gone tomorrow" applies to many of these unique assemblies. While we strive to maintain a strong diversity of desirable parts, there simply aren't enough available to meet demand at times. 


For further information on the restoration process and options, please contact us.


 

APPLICATIONS

 

This assembly is correct for the following 1959 390 tri-power models:


CADILLAC

El Dorado, Biarritz, Seville, Series 62, Convertible


This assembly will also fit the 1960 models, but is correct for the 59 due to the factory stamping. It may fit the 1958 models as well, but differs significantly by way of the star burst lid and prominent wing nut stanchions used on 58 models.


 

FITMENT

 

The assembly will fit factory tri-power Rochester carburetors with the two large outside and small center flanges. If you have modified your carburetor, intake manifold or valve covers, please inquire first prior to bidding to ensure fitment is correct. Return requests for non-fitment will not be honored.
