Just need an intake, 3 carbs, and a few odds and ends now

Very cool. Repop?

 

Where'd you get it and how much?
I have the standard individual chrome top air cleaners
on my set up, but,
a ram air would be nice if I could afford it.

 

Hurry Ed, change it, change it...OAI, lol.

 

No problem.
All it takes is bucks.
Hopefully, the price of the repro isn't quite as insane as an original.
Saw one go for $6,000 on ebay several years ago.

 

The one that I saw that impressed me was a low mile takeoff 66 full set of OAI everything for buy it now of 12k.

 

I'll ask again. Who's repopping those or is that original?

 

Trip, weren't the originals chrome? I know the 54 66's were numbered,
and chromed, but the 67's? Someone in the know will chime in hopefully.
I'm betting the one Chris has is a repop.

 

They were all chrome as far as I know including the 67's but they wouldn't be Tri-Carbs. I'd love to have a 66 one for sure.

 

x2 - all of the originals for 66 & 67 were chrome.

But - we all want to know where that repop came from??????????

Must be Italian

Okay okay cough it up where do you get one of those??

 

It's one of a very limited number of Dr. Oldmobile's reproductions.

Note in your web search that there is no "s" in "Dr. Oldmobile"

The tooling still exists, but production has ceased. If I had the time I would get the tooling and continue production. Kickstarter campaign?

It was a lot less coin than a real one, for sure.

Came via a friend of a friend kind of deal.

 

Looked familiar and weren't his molds for sale too?

 

Cool nice to have good friends!

 

I saw some 67 that had a pie plate on an OAI. I am pretty sure that is incorrect.

 

At work we buy 100's of fiberglass fan housings

I wonder with the tooling I could have the same guys produce the shrouds?

Filler work when not busy with other things, once in a while.

Problem is, limited market. Maybe a couple dozen units at the most. Even if dirt cheap, which they are not.

 

I would love to have a 67 version

 

it would look like chrome if i had it.they have come so far with wraps its nearly impossible
to tell...i saw a guy do a pair of bumpers and was hard to tell...very complicated too
