Anyone interested in a set of script valve covers? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**68350** · 07-17-2005, 12:17 PM

I got a set of script valve covers and was wondering if anyone is interested in them? They have NO damage and if anyone is interested, I will clean them up and primer them with self-etching. Also, does anyone know how much these would be worth? Thanks

**tnblazerk5** · 07-17-2005, 12:26 PM

If the price is right I am interested.

tomatocity · 07-17-2005, 02:28 PM

what re script valve covers? Chevrolet, Edelbrock, Weiand, etc?

**68350** · 07-17-2005, 02:31 PM

these are the original 283 or 327 ones.

Before anyone buys them, I want to clean them up. Anyone got an idea what they are worth?

**tnblazerk5** · 07-17-2005, 02:50 PM

let me know a price for the way they are , i still may want them

I could be wrong, but are those the offset valve cover screw set for a 265. It is hard to tell but the upper holes look closer together, if they are they are probably the same value but different application.

Thank you 55454, these are the offset ones for v-8's until 1957. If tnblazerk5 doesn't take them, I would like $25 plus shipping. Thanks

55454 · 07-17-2005, 05:23 PM

Actually and some may correct me they ran from 55,56, very early 57, and 55-59 trucks.
I know the 55, 56 vette guys like them, I can say all this now that you posted a price. I wouldn't mind hanging them on the wall myself, awesome trading material.

**tnblazerk5** · 07-17-2005, 05:47 PM

qksilver · 07-17-2005, 06:02 PM

Steve

**68350** · 07-17-2005, 06:17 PM

laplander · 07-17-2005, 07:07 PM

If qksilver doesn't take them, I will.
Thanks,
Nik

71swb4x4 · 07-17-2005, 09:06 PM

I will take them, if I didn't already miss out to gksilver. I thought I was after tnblazerk5.

55454 · 07-17-2005, 09:15 PM

I have not seen the couple of guys who usually patrol this, WOW.

Tommy

**68350** · 07-17-2005, 09:34 PM

qksilver was the first to post that said he wanted them.

nitor · 07-17-2005, 09:42 PM

I have a set of those. I don't think mine are offset. They are orange. I don't want to sell them. I want to trade. I need a set of rear bumper brackets for my 70 GMC. If anyone wants to trade.

nitor · 07-17-2005, 09:44 PM

I also have a set off of a 60s 283 or 327.

nitor · 07-17-2005, 09:51 PM

Sorry 68350, I didn't mean to walk on you're thread.

Just so you know, those are the 327 covers, not used on 283's that I've ever seen and fetch quite a bit on ebay. My 66 327 Impala has these. They did start repro'ing these for about $90 a pair too.

nitor · 07-18-2005, 07:25 AM

Thanks Bob, I didn't remember if I had seen those on one size or both.

Not a big deal, your post asked if anyone was interested, I said I was. You didn't give a price, so I couldn't commit.
Let me know if you find another pair. I have been looking for a while, although I haven't been looking too hard.

71swb4x4 · 07-18-2005, 01:29 PM

I don't mean any of that in a negative way either, after reading may last post again I can see that someone could think I was being sarcastic.
