I'll play, just because I love this "day 2" stuff. Here's my Chevy II with the "poor boy street racer" look. Black steel wheels and chrome lugs. Lots of folks just pulled the caps for the "racer look" back in the mid-60s when they could not afford wheels. See the vintage '62 409 pic on page 2 of this thread.

It has a 327 under the hood and a Muncie 4-spd on the bench that will be replacing the Powerglide in a month or two. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I'm thinking I need a set of chrome reverse wheels and piecrusts on the rear.

Vintage Mallory Rev Pol transformer (coil) nos in the box. Neat piece. Every &quot;day 2&quot; car I ever remember used to have a Mallory Rev Pol ignition. I have never seen one of these NOS before. I currently have it listed on ebay.

I got this on ebay awhile back-Plan on putting it to use when I do the BBC Swap &gt;I would like to get a Vintage Mallory Dizzy...

I think he was saying it is currently a powerglide and it will be sporting a Muncie shortly. Nothing like rowing the boat!

Correct. Powerglide is Boring in a street car with the tall first gear, although highway on ramps can be fun when it kicks down into low at 40 mph. I fully expect it will be a whole different car once I get the M20 installed. It's in pieces now - Autogear case, GM 26-spline input, etc. Should be assembling and installing in the coming months as soon as I find time.

I have just run across some day 2 Mr Gasket valve covers that I have never seen before:











Anyone know anything about these?

I am guessing pre-69 as it has the weird breather cage, but maybe the other side had some sort of adapter that allowed the cap to be twisted on. Unfortunately all I have is pictured
