You are probably not going to get any takers without some pictures. Just saying.

Yeah, a picture might show if they’re for First Gen or Second Gen engines.

If they're OEM, what did they come off of? They might've been chromed aftermarket. I can't think of any later engine with this type of valve covers other than the 69 H/O that had factory chrome valve covers, and these ain't them.

If the price keeps rising every 2 hours and there won't be any takers either. I know inflation abounds but just wow. From 400 to 600 and now 799? Why the price change?

Gas prices aren't even going up that fast. Did Biden cause this increase. Who is 443FREDDDDDD? For that price they should have belonged to Ransom E. Olds.

442FREDDDDDD may have obtained the valve covers from Ransom E. Olds!! He is not far behind Ransom E. Olds.

Ah! Thanks for the memory jog. 67's did have a notch for the brake booster. I incorrectly was thinking the 66 and 67 were the same. But they are not.

Looks like stock welded baffles, maybe had stock covers chrome plated when it was affordable?
