[QUOTE="XFIRE82, post: 169412, member: 2292"] ... ........The invoice for the BelAir says it is a 6 cyl car , model 1749, the 17 meant 6 cyl , if it was 18 then that meant a V8. Now on the 6 bangers a oil filter was a option back in those days. So as shown the buyer was charged for the option. It was a canister just clamped onto the intake manifold usually and often dealer installed. Back then everyone usually changed oil every 1000 miles so a filter didn't do too much. The V8's all came with a oil filter. Up to 1968 the V8 had a canister with a element which was abit of a pain to change cause of the " O ' ring gasket that would stick in the grove.
