Re: My Truck
Very nice. I too have a 63 gmc shortbrd fleet side. It is in need of restoration and it has those same valve covers. I can't seem to find the true story behind the plaid covers? Anyone?

Re: My Truck
You'll find several different stories online regarding those valve covers. A few are even from past GM employees but none of them seem to be confirmed. I kind of like the mystery that surrounds them because it adds to the unusualness.
