1972 Cutlass Supreme Vapor Canister

I see to be struggling to find a replacement vapor canister for my 1972 CS. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Do you mean the plastic one with two nipples that sits behind the passenger side headlights? If so I have several of them. $25 shipped for 1.

Yes. Could you send me the height and diameter of the ones you have? Are the ones you have new?

Thanks

Service replacements are readily available. They're called "vapor canisters". The hookup is a little different - it uses stacked nipples and draws air from the top instead of the bottom. Standard Products CP1022 or ACDelco 215153.
Old ones can be fine - just sometimes the bag holding the charcoal falls apart and the car sucks down the dust. No bueno.

Thanks guys. I ordered the AC Delco 215-153. It seemed to be the closest fit for my mounting bracket.

Well, I finally got around to getting pix today. Sorry for the slow response, lots of family stuff going on right now. This one came out of a '71-'72 Cutlass. I understand if I'm too late.
