67 S code air cleaner service decal - Dearborn
« on: September 17, 2017, 11:32:54 PM »
Does anyone have a photo of a 67 S code  air cleaner service decal location. If it matters the air cleaner body has the two screens.
Dearborn car built 2-15-67

Yes that is the air cleaner housing we have but I am asking where the element service decal is located and what it looks like.
thanks Marty

Found this with a group of what was presented a NOS C7ZZ-9600-F air cleaner (with a matching number box).

Found it interesting that this decal was already attached to the base but here it is at about 2-4 o'clock.  Don't see that many of this style in Calif so didn't have any on cars. Should answer the question for you Marty

As we can see the screen is located where it would normally be applied on other types of V8 air cleaners that year

A side note, the example "Futura" shared was for "Open Emissions" (no breather elbow nipple where the "FRONT" decal is incorrectly placed on the base) and the example Jeff shared was for "Closed Emissions" (has elbow breather hose nipple on front).

I say this because many may not understand the "Open Emissions" vs. "Closed Emissions" although both are commonly found.

Thanks Jeff,
I am surprised by both the location and the decal. I expected to see it located on the drivers side ahead of the screen. From what I can see in your picture it looks like the 68 and latter red and white decal. Do you suppose it could be because it is a NOS part and a latter decal was used?

Not sure if the location really surprises me much. Not sure if it would fit as easy in front of the screen but there it is on at least this example. Looked at other pictures in the set and could not make out dates on the shipping label or on the box as we can sometimes :(



Looks to me like it could be this 67 AUTOLITE service decal without the 68 up style part numbers. Same one we find that year on small blocks and 6 cylinders Because of this possibility don't think its a later decal placed on an earlier base. Not like the incorrect reproduction with the part number and FA number made for this application

I expected to see it just forward of the screen because that close to were the 68 label is. The only label I could find listed for 67 S is a Black and white
Air Cleaner Part NO.
C7ZF-9600-F  :(
Do you know of any correct reproductions of this label?

They use to, at least, make a late 68-up style service decal with the C7ZF-9600-F. Hopefully they stopped making it because no one was buying it Don't know




Like allot of details its always surprising what some of use thinks is common knowledge while to others its not know. Just one of the reasons we started and continue to support this site ;)  And as its often said "we don't know what we don't know"   Happens to each of us at some point.

That same decal was used through part of 68 it appears. In fact the top most one in my prior post is from a 68 example (8T03J118xx). There has been discussions on other forums over the years showing them popping up on period pictures of the first 428 CJ engines like the "135" cars.




And an early 428 equipped Cougar


Sorry can find a better resolution picture at the moment




And from a 68 Cougar ad




About 6 years ago one owner made a short run of them in paper like originals but have hears a peep since them. Apparently since no one is taking off for the later versions (with part numbers) on earlier 68's and for 67's (MCA judges might not be aware of this possibility) we don't have anyone making them nor an educated market for them if they were made.

Doesn't look like a difficult decal to make free hand but having a real one to compare to and get it right is going to be a bit of a challenge but there has to be one or more originals still on an air cleaner since they were used on a variety of engine sizes, models of Ford products and over a year of applications
