Thanks to all for your input and leads. I have a very nice vintage Lakewood Scattershield w/ block plate heading my way. <font color="red"> Anyone know the correct shade of red for a Lakewood? </font> Don't know if it changed over the years. The one I have coming is an earlier four digit code (1500) part # vs. the new five digit code scattershields.

Thanks!

Call Lakewood OR take the shield with you to a good hardware store and match it up. The one you showed me looks to be the type I ran in 1971 or earlier. That to me looked like the correct color.

Being a Lakewood, make sure you put an indicator on the back of the crankshaft flange and indicate the bellhousing. Those Lakewoods, are notorious for being pretty far 'out' from centerline.
