'55 Super 88 Holiday Pics

So, this is the original paint. I did repaint some of the engine and valve covers.







Don't mind the tach, I remove it for shows. I did NOT even splice my new harness, I used a 4-wire trailer harness as a quick disconnect.

Beautiful! Did you get matching paint from SEM for those valve covers? They match the intake manifold and the OE Oldsmobile color exactly.

Yeah, they are pricey. Bidenomics just sent the price from $388 to $420 since March. https://www.cokertire.com/tires/p225...whitewall.html
