A while back, there were some posts about a couple sources of the clear
macaroni brick.  My husband recently got his childhood LEGO (and his
older siblings childhood LEGO as well) it's most likely all european
(Israel) and ranges from about 1962-1980, we have found 1 macaroni brick
in clear.  We've also found a whole bunch of other interesting things,
which I may have to post about if we can't puzzle them out.  I was
wondering what sets might have clear macaroni... we don't have any ship
hulls, so i don't think it's the fire boat, and we don't have any CA
bricks, so it's not too too old... Any help in this matter would greatly
be appretiated.

Note of interest:  we think we might have the 1551 Sterling truck, as we
found several bricks that say "sterling" and the "s" brick from the
front.. cool :)

Jennifer, Clear macaroni bricks in the early 1960's were more plentiful than at any other time in LEGO history. They were produced in clear parts packs #224 (20 per pack in Europe, 33 per pack in North America (Samsonite)). And there were also (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)
