    Ron,

    I'll check to see if I have enough change in my pocket to buy the air filter.

        The A329C used on small block Corvettes ended in late 1974 model production and they all carried the "BEST WAY TO...." message. It was replaced with the A348C. Sometime in late '74 or '75 production the "BEST WAY TO..." message was deleted.

        If anyone has documentation as to when this occurred, please post the information.

          I should add that all A329C air filters originally installed on Corvettes in the '74 model year had the horizontal square mesh design.

            Don,
            As I have posted before, it was a bicentennial event - Start MY 1976.

            Scott - that service filter I have see "inside" the air cleaner assemblies for 68-9 Camaro, 69 Chevelle and the Camaro air filter assembly part number to which I am referring is also the air filter assembly purchased BY St Louis Asy FROM AC Spark Plug Division.

              The box number zID is correct for my 67 327 L79

                I bet you don't get the GM box which is NOS. He probably uses the box over and over again.

                "I TAKE SPECIAL CARE IN PACKING RARE NOS PARTS TO HELP PREVENT ANY DAMAGE WHICH USUALLY INCLUDES STRONG AND EXPENSIVE TYPE TAPE AND BOXES. SOMETIMES IF I HAVE AN ODD SHAPED, BULKY, AND/OR VERY EXPENSIVE PART TO SHIP, IT MAY TAKE A LITTLE LONGER WHILE I TRACK DOWN A SPECIAL BOX."

                  Filter is real too, not C2, but the real deal.

                    You are right on Patrick. It's amazing how attached some sellers get to a "box".

                      I can't tell you how many times I've seen a rare GM part (box only) for sale on eBay. No part inside, just the box. You don't have to be a Detective to figure that one out!

                        He states it is unopened! Must have an X-ray camera. Ed
