We drained the oil out of the 59 Apache and I tossed out the oil filter cartridge. (External style canister) Does anyone have the handy reference that will tell me what the part number is for Purolator/Fram/STP/whomever has the replacement cartridges? As always- thanks for saving my butt.
It depends Here's a link that addresses original oil filters offered by Chevy in '59. Hope this helps. http://chevy.tocmp.com/chevyresto/59ted18.htm
Oil Filter Applications You can also always go to WIX , AC DELCO or NAPA to look it up , there were two different ones available , one is a 5" element and t'other (IIRC) is a 7" element .
