Tri power air cleaner cost

SO one of my buddy's has told me the air cleaner on my 1966 track pack car all chrome with the air ducts on the side is worth upwards of $1500.00 is this true ? does anyone know the value of one of these ? I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT THE TRI POWER SET UP IS WORTH ? I think I am going to start selling the parts off of this, just kidding..

I have seen the W-30 Chrome air cleaners go for 10k for both 66 Tri power and 67, 4 barrel. If this is what you have 1500 is way to low. Not that i think they are worth 10k but that's what they go for these days. There was a thread on here months ago where someone bought one of each for these prices on ebay.

No joke. Per thread below he paid 10k per. Links are down but 10k is mentioned. I have one on my 67 and the guy i bought the car from jacked up his price when he saw what they were going for. Almost hosed up the deal but we found a price i could live with.

Tom add that replacement cost in with the insured agreed value policy you should have on your car.

Dam shroud is worth more than the intake & carbs.

Hell, the shroud could be insured by itself. Does your shroud have a number stamped on it? It would be by where the ducts connect.
What do the screws look like that are holding the halves together and how many screws total 4 or 5ea??

Still gota get over to your garage with my bib strapped to my neck.

8 grand is more like the price being sold, lots ask 10k but very very few sell at that..of course it would have to be in excellent shape..thats a numbered unit, non numbered a tad less..They are far and few in between. Those that think they should be cheaper don’t own such a rare commodity..I don’t like the price of rare items either, doesn’t mean they aren’t worth it, I am a just a frugal person. Others have more colorful names for my frugality..lol

This is my car, not day one, but I did it a couple years ago..Mike Richards and Curt Anderson both guided me on making sure it was 100% correct. I even painted the blue line on the upper radiator hose. So its identical to day one.
