I got a reproduction and so did a friend. Found out they don't fit on a Holley 1850 4 bbl without a spacer. The bottom on the base plate isn't punched deep enough. I compared it to my original which fits fine.Sent from my Galaxy

Maybe not perfectly original but it’s turned out looking nice.Il giorno mar 18 gen 2022 alle 01:33 GARY WINBLAD <garywinblad at comcast.net> ha scritto: I think the hammertone was only on the outside.. hope so, when it starts peeling its going into the engine.. or course I guess it would just mix with the brake fluid from the blown servo, LOL..

I also shot my photos in natural, non-glaring lighting conditions. (I shared three photos in an earlier Email today.) The more I look at my Air Cleaner in outside, cloudy light, and then at your photos, the more I could be easily convinced it is Hammertone.

This housing came off a Mk1 Tiger and went on a shelf exposed to the elements where It sat for years - until I bought it at a “yard sale” for 60 bucks, along with other Tiger parts. I believe the paint is original - what’s left of it. The paint appears to be alligatoring and falling off. The pictures were taken with a DSLR camera using natural light from a window to the right There is no “hue” from an incandescent or florescent bulb, or any light bulb.. Perhaps someone can tell if the finish was hammertone. The color must be the factory color as toned by the years and weather. -Allan Ballard Mk1a Tiger Series I Alpine(V6, T5) -Atlanta On Jan 17, 2022, at 11:13 AM, Ron Fraser via Tigers <tigers at autox.team.net> wrote: Bob Interesting – can you send a picture?

It is a slightly blueish grey closer to the convertible top frame but slightly bluer On Jan 17, 2022 6:15 AM, Owain Lloyd via Tigers <tigers at autox.team.net> wrote: Hi all, happy new year. Does anyone have a paint code for the grey on the air cleaner housing?
