Ha! Thanks Charley!

Yes, can’t put a wrong firing order on there. I’ll confuse myself!

Up next will be formulating the next phase and plan. I’ll be in the plannification stage to see what comes next. I know I’ll be spraying the trunk, interior, and engine bay in DP48 white epoxy for a fresh coat and then undercoat the wheel wells and trunk floor underside so it’s less obtrusive hanging down below the bumper.

Interestingly, I was talking with the gentleman who’s restore six of them and we were chatting about the undercarriage details. I’m clear on what the factory did and what restorers commonly do. As expected, they aren’t remotely the same. Much like “over-restored” muscle cars.

We’ll see which way I’ll go in the smaller details. I have an idea of what I want to do. I think first I need a lift in the shop next!

Cheers
Dave

Crazy question Dave, but shouldn't the other valve cover have the logo and numbers going the opposite direction so the breather holes on both are facing the front of the engine when installed? I'm no OldsmoBileMW aficiando but enquiring minds want to know.
