Title: Were chrome engine parts an option for 67?
Post by: 1967RS/SS on April 04, 2013, 01:07:24 AM

Just continuing my project of putting my car back to as original as possible.  Was is possible that the following list of parts were available in chrome for '67?

Open element air cleaner
Oil fill tube
Upper alternator bracket
Timing chain cover & timing tab
Chevrolet script valve covers


I am sure the air filter is not original since my car was AIR equipped but what about the other parts?

My car is an 01C 1967 rs/ss L48 MV block with AIR. Thanks,

Joe

Part of the SS package (L48 in 67).  From that list, just the valve covers for certain, oil fill tube/cap is still researched, may depend on plant and date, UPC K19 versus K24.  Correct air cleaner assembly lid is chromed also.  Alt bracket is semi-gloss black, timing cover w/ welded tab is engine color.  Here's a couple old threads to help:

I can't find a link to the old oil tube discussion, but have it saved as a Word doc.  Let me know if you want it sent.

My l-48 oil fill tube is black with a chrome push on oil cap embossed with AC.
