Big Block Chevy Valve Cover Needed

[mssl72]

I'm still looking for that elusive valve cover. Somebodies got to have one laying around. Please?

I see lots of valve covers when I do a search for corvettes on Ebay.

[mssl72]

Well, I search ebay everyday and haven't seen the correct stuff yet. That's why I'm still searching.

I know the feeling I need a NOS rear taillight panel for my '69 vette and so far have not found one.

[mssl72]

Do you have a GM part number for the taillight panel?

Just saw your post . You must be needing one of those in a BAD way . That is such a rare piece ! Those go for a mint on e-bay . People are always looking for those . You would give alot of money for it if i had one wouldn't you ? Had a guy offer me 100 bucks for it & wouldn't sell it . Sorry , just had to use some of the lines that have been pulled on me from time to time [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] . I do have one though . It is not in pristene condition like the one you have in your photo ( small dents , no rust to speak of ) . Does not have drippers & didn't look like it ever had them ? Anyway , want $ 25 for it so i don't think you could go wrong . Can probably send some photo's tomorrow if you want .

Pardon me , may i have a towel ? Need to wipe the SPIT off my face . Don't imagine you have heard the saying , beggers can't be choosers ? I dare say there will be no more takers on your ad , afraid they can't measure up to your extreme standards . So what mine has no drippers ? Can't hardly see the spot welds from them on a painted valve cover anyway . Not much other reason for needing drippers , is there ? Nice try ? What's that all about ? Had the item described ( minus drippers [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] ) at a reasonable price ( in my mind ) . Didn't try to do anything but help a guy out ! Oh well , at least now i know what car this engine came out of ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

The drippers are there for a reason...just like same the slotted rocker balls. Been there, done that, learned the hard way...story of my life! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

BTW, I *think* we have a set of those valve covers, that came off of a '66 L-72 we bought from the left coast. They are currently on the Nova's engine on the stand, but I'll take a look tomorrow.
