Can't  seem to find  a definite answer in other threads,is the color  of the air breather  the same  as the engine  block?
67 s code, GTA

"Air breather"   

Not sure if your asking about

1- Oil breather cap - driver side valve cover?  Its chrome plated

2- Air cleaner? - Painted engine color or very close to with a chrome lid or top

3- Thermactor (smog) air filter canister? Semi-gloss black as a unit along with the wing nut

4- PCV hose or valve?  Depends on what part

Or another part

Did the picture thread of the unrestored S code GTA San Jose built fastback in the Unrestored Picture Thread not have a picture that helped? Looks like it was likely built within a few weeks of your car

Thanks  Jeff ,I did see the thread of the unrestored air filter, looks like engine  blue with a lighter  shade in the center, just  wanted  to be sure  it was engine  color ,details like these I want to have clear in my head

No problem just wanted to clarify and make sure that you get the best answer. And yes the air cleaner had been repainted (though it was painted a version of engine blue) at some point.  Hopefully you have the originally air cleaner as that can be a long and confusing discussion since there are many versions depending on the car's details and allot of ones that are wrong for Mustangs out there
