That looks like the original style fuel filter in the corner of the last pic. They were glass and could be cleaned out and reused. Most of them got thrown away and replaced with the disposable plastic ones. I think they were normally on gas heaters though.

Nice set of NOS Wizemann lifters that were sitting in someone's garage for 30+ years.  Also, a new clutch throwout bearing shaft and assorted axle bearing kits:

Can we see more pics of that Bugpack shifter, Johnny? 
It looks like the bottom mechanism is similar to a Hurst.

Well ended up at Kelly park for the first time in 10 years. Very slim pickings I found a few cool things but sold them as I already had a few of those items. But this Sweet copper hurst shifter was there and I got it for only $5.00 dollars LOL...Didn't look like it does in the pic it was tarnished but 5 minutes of alittle elbow grease and mothers polish and it came out nice.

This has been a dead thread a long time so I thought I would revive it and share a pretty cool find. Found this attached to the pedal assy. On an old 53 oval filled with Empi parts but you’ve seen all that stuff before so I thought I would share the one thing I’ve never seen it’s a vintage Fulton accelerator pedal usually found on old fords but this one Was in my oval I purchased.
