You can believe what you want, but I think they did stuff like this just to mess with us 60 years later. I have cars that are 110 years old and we find it all the time.

I'm confused. What is a L 79 Camaro? It has BB emblems.

I understand, I worked in a company that did chrome plating. What I meant was BB valve covers looked bad when they were new because they were polished correctly or copper plated. It would be hard to make anything new look that bad.

I think it would be hard to replicate the lousy flash chrome on BB valve covers.

Are these sand blasters like the Champion unit? Yours looks great.

I too would like to see the difference in the lifters. The '55 265's had oil problems but this ain't that.

I just remember the clear bottles of stuff from the '60's that really worked. I knew a parts manager that ordered hundreds of cases when it was first discontinued. That may have been in the early '70's when it was not PC to kill sperm whales..

I wish I had taken pictures when the one was at Hershey. I don't remember a spoiler, but the price was 42,000 I think. It would have been about '96 or so.
