Cab Over filter?

Found it in the TW index. Page 25, July 1994 issue.
“.....Slipping into his ordinary brown coveralls, Lark knew this clever disguise would allow him to pass as an ordinary person. None would guess he was an SDC agent on a quest to find a rare and mysterious Studebaker cabover truck. The early Indiana inhabitants called it “Kohlrabi.” Legend handed down through the South Bend tribe reported that the truck had existed, but there were few alive today who could claim to have seen it....”
Photos within the article show the mission was a success.
I’d like to buy the air cleaner if it’s up for grabs. I always liked the Kohlrabi story.Last edited by mbstude; 10-14-2020, 03:25 PM.

According to the attached ad, Studebaker referred to the cab-over truck as a 'short-coupled truck'. Even more interesting to me, I don't recall ever reading that Autocar helped produce this model of Studebaker.

I agree, if someone needs this thing for their truck, it belongs to them. I’ll be glad to start making payments if nobody steps up.

Based upon a picture in my MoToR’s manual covering 1935 to 1942 automobiles, it looks to be made by Burgess, albeit without the “silencer” chamber, which makes sense for a truck. Especially a truck with limited engine space like a cab-over!
