M/T VALVE COVERS
 
1 Attachment(s)
Picked up a set of Mickey Thompson valve covers.Don't see ''MADE IN CHINA or TAIWAN''on them so I'm wondering if I got lucky and they are original U.S.made.Only info I can see is 140R-48B on the underside of each cover.Bill.

They are. After the US castings everything went to Japan so if it doesn't say Japan you are safe. Nice set btw...

Nice looking covers. The insignia (backwards Bow Tie) is the same as in my 1972 Catalog although the part number differs......why the bow ties are backwards..IDK.... licensing maybe or read wrong by tool/die maker ?????

Thought I would share a picture of the parts my oldest son has accumulated for his 69 Nova. For the last few years he gets a part or 2 for his birthday. This year he got the 10&quot; Ansens he wanted. Pretty good taste in parts for a 12 year old. He still wants a tunnel ram and an L88 hood.

Some of that stuff looks familiar... I hope he enjoys it Lewis...

Wow, you didn't waste any time spotting this post did you? He gets the wheels Saturday, he doesn't know about them yet. Thanks for keeping your eyes open for the good stuff for him. I owe you.
