Help with air cleaner

Can someone tell me what this area cleaner is off of. Please look in my gallery. It has a straight neck, not for a flanged carb.

That is an ugly beast. Is it a dry filter or oil bath?

it is more than likely from a car. I think just the truck carbs had the flange on them. It will probly be hard to pinpoint the exact year and model. Ive seen cleaners on 50, 51, &52 model trucks and they were all different.

Straight neck, flangeless: That describes the Holley 1V carb used on 1949/51 Ford 226 6 cylinder passenger cars, and the air cleaner looks very similar to the one pictured in the 1949/59 Ford car parts catalog for that same 1V carb.

Carb illustration: Section 95, page 304.

Air cleaner: Section 60, page 147.

FYI: The 1948/56 Ford Truck Parts Catalog is available from hipoparts.com on a CD. The price is less than $25.00. Since the trucks from this time period have less models, and are less complicated than the newer stuff, using this catalog is easy. The illustrations are clear, and easier to read than in some old dirty shop manual, plus you get all the part numbers.


Everyone that owns one of these trucks should have this parts catalog.
