Hi folks. It’s been about 6 years since I posted on here, looks pretty quiet these days!

Quick question.

I’ve got a 1970 XW Fairmont, factory 302W, Column auto. It’s stock as a rock.

I’m starting to source bits and pieces for it now.

Can anyone tell me if it had a decal on the air cleaner?

I think they would say 302 high performance or something, but the air cleaner doesn’t look like it’s ever had anything on it. It’s a one owner car- my dad bought it in 1970, unfortunately I can’t ask him as he’s been gone a little while now unfortunately, but i obviously have the history of the entire cars life…

Did the fairmont with a 302 have the aircleaner decal?

Any help would be most appreciated.

Mal.

my brother had a wagon XW Fairmont mit 302W and auto many moons ago (he drives a near new Camry these days.. . haha very different )

my recollection is it had a curving 302 V8 sticker in black on a blue air cleaner with a sort of funny checkered flaggy thing/symbol at each end

sorry no piccies

I do note that’s for an XT. So unlikely.
