Steve Sandlin's DH Camaro also has the foil decals. On one valve cover was one that was nothing more than a business card like tag the name and address of Dick Harrell. The other valve cover had the area that was blank for the serial number but was also not legible.

Ray is correct. His car did come as he described.
Ray will tell you his car was not completed when he came to
pick it up... point being it was not left over from the
mag article.
The pictures (posted at the first of this thread) were taken
at least 2 months and more likely 3 or 4 months before the magazine "hit the stands" during that time many procedures
were changed..... including what has been discussed here.

There is a simple explanation about Steves Chevelle also.
After Joe S. got the car and I got in contact with him on the phone one of the things I told him was about that car coming back to the shop for some work on the carbs. I told Joe that I was sure that the floats were reset and new needles and seats were installed. When he heard that he then told me that the shop ticket for that was included in the docs he got with the car and was amazed that I was able to recall that. In any event on that car the metal tags had fallen off the valve covers and were replaced with the foil ones at that time.
I hope this will satisfy those unasked questions??
It makes my head hurt trying to recall stuff like this.....

I think this should more than cover this subject?
At least that is all I have to say about it.
