<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: [email protected]</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Cal Custom were popular also along with the MT's.

Nope, I typed it right - I've got Ladder Bars, old school, NOS, yellow ones at that. I plan to install them for the look, not the function - I don't want the harsh ride.

I'm not trying to make it an all USA thing, just want to know what was around during that period - and what it looks like. I do like the plain vanilla look of the Cal Customs a little more than the E-brocks and M/T's - reminds me of the cheap, knock off stuff I bought for my first car!

sometimes the cheap, knock off stuff is harder to find in nice shape. Good deal!

Edelbrock BBC covers originally had the curved script, like a rainbow, back in the '60s. I think they went to a flat, straight script &quot;Edelbrock&quot; in the '70s.

Never seen &quot;396&quot; M/Ts. Anyone got a photo?

Moon also makes nice covers that have a Day 2 look but are a new cover.
