what kind of air filter is that? never seen one with that checkerboard look before. cool.
do you plan to cover the intake with something from your box of tricks? can't wait to see how that looks if you plan that. you always come up with something new and cool.
The filter is a cheap one I found on ebay. I had to find a shorter one than the red one that I was using because it hit the inner fender. That design is called carbon fiber. I believe it was only 12 bucks. Yes I plan to eventually run a engine cover but I will think about that later I have way bigger eggs to fry.lol I have to get this thing done so I can start on my 55 210 car.

Do you think she'll be ready to drive to the Brothers Show next summer?
Thanks. Like I said earlier in this post, yes I plan to do something, I'm just not sure as to what at this time. It will be something simple. Brothers Show man I hope so but I'm not going to say it.lol

Not a dumb question at all. I was going to run the wires through that piece but I found if I drilled a new hole and ran the wires across the radiator support all the wires would be hidden behind the hood latch panel. I did end up running a couple of ground wire through there.
