Climatic Combustion Control (C.C.C.)

Earlier this week i found a quite unique olds aircleaner. it reads "Oldsmobile Climatic Combustion Control" it somewhat resembles a pizza box with a round front and foreward facing dual snorkels. that isnt the best description, but this is quite different and hard to explain. from what i have found on the internet, it sounds to be off a '67 "turnpike cruiser" a 2bbl 400 high torque option. this is all i have found, does anyone know more about this? production numbers of this "turnpike cruiser" or rarity/worth of this item?

PaX

here's a link to a pic of one.

Not in '67.

Heated intake air as part of Smog Controls, didn't happen in CA until '72 or '73. The other 49 followed in '74.

An option for cold weather climates, that didn't work in the real world?
