Typical repop junk! If I had a nickle for every repop part I had to rebuild, make fit, etc I would be able to restore these cars for free!

Once again, a big THANK YOU to Dan for posting these pictures, as I can see that although I <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">DO</span></span> now have the proper shift linkage, I can see that I am missing the shifter-body-to-crossmember brace.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Postsedan</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Good eye Rick.....these obviously are not the original valve covers.....once the original Valve Covers get rechromed they will have the correct decal on the passengers side.

Dan </div></div>

I was going to ask that same question...but, who would question the &quot;master&quot; in open court [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Nice work...a real piece of art!
