I agree. Just how anal would you have to be to pay $2,500 for a paper air filter no one is going to see. My wife thinks I’m crazy for what I fork over for parts. . Wait ‘til she sees what these morons are paying.

She will think I am sane after all.:rofl:rofl

J.C. !!!! I just noticed it hasn't even made the RESERVE YET

$3350 and the reserve isn't met ? thats got to be a record price for an air filter, you could by 1 1/2 cross rams for that price !!!

They'll see that one. The 57 Corvette FI aircleaner was open element.... just a round lid over this filter on a round base. Easily spotted as repro in NCRS judging. You can bet that the bidders are Corvette guys.

4,000 for the filter. Amazing!

four grand, probably didn't cost four dollars new in 1957.
