Title: WTB: 69 Mustang 390/428 AIR CLEANER (non-ram air)
Post by: Rusty on November 02, 2021, 02:37:37 PM

Looking for a 390 or 428 air cleaner assembly for my 69 Mustang. I have a snorkel already so I really only need the base and lid but I'd take a complete assy if necessary.

If your going to have to rechrome the lid anyway might also consider some of the painted ones from other years and car models for a cheaper base price. Just a thought

Yep. I'm open to a painted one as well.

Are you still looking? I have the complete 390 air cleaner, and several other pieces from a complete 69 390.

I have talked to a guy that has a base and lid. We may be working a deal but I'd still be interested in what you have. I'd definitely like to discuss the complete assembly with you.

 The Ford small block air cleaner lid and base I have for a 302 works fine for the 390 2V V8 I have. Other than the snorkel and the sticker they are virtually identical. Just saying.

I have one complete set for sale and the price is right.

The 302 would lack the vacuum motor and mounting hole and bracket on the drivers side so no identical by far.
