    I was looking for the chrome plate used by Oldsmobile.

    Are you referring to one of these??? This is from a mid/late 60's Olds V8. They are repro'd as well.

    Yes, I used to have a few back in the day. My memory wouldn't allow me to figger where they came from but i reasoned either caddy or Oldsmobile.. I don't think much of repops If the one in pic is for sale let me know I can send USPS mo. I bought Chevy chrome lid for a z-28 intake combo I'm using for display at present time. So I bin + it kind of looked like the center was there - sort of. But after taking it out and examining it the center is blown out and fragments are about to break off. I think the olds center fits the regular air cleaner. Prolly won't work -fit open element lid. Nonetheless ineedit.

    OK - I'll send you a "Conversation"/PM and we can discuss it. Realize that the part that I have is an original.....hasn't been rechromed, etc. The chrome on these wasn't a "show chrome" to start with....sort of a flash chrome or "rougher" chrome. And it has 50+ years of aging/patina on the chrome.
