Here is some air cleaners i built for my 140 in a 61 rampside. Bought rampside a year ago and has been sitting in shed for 15 years and has not ran in 7 years. uncapped two cars and installed rebuilt primary and secondary carbs. Thing started right up after putting some fresh gas in it.

I'm excited to follow this thread and hopefully add to it as I can. I'm putting around in a 61 Greenbrier daily and have a 61 panel that I call the "Turd" (because of it's color/texture). I don't plan to doing modifications to the Greenbrier (going on CL for sale this week) but I hope to play with the "Turd" at some point. My main focus will be my two Rampsides. One is being built for resale and the money will be used to build the second Rampside that I will keep. This is the one I plan to do the modifications on. I want to go all out on this one. I've already got a 140HP 4 carb engine for it.
