Gold moroso's
Hey guys,
i'm after a set of gold Moroso valves covers for my BBC. Which year they'd been discontinued? How much a good clean set go for these days? Found a near new set, they've been bolted to the engine then taken off, 2-3 minor scratches around the breather hole. He does not have the box. How much should I pay ? They are hard to find here in Quebec and even more in good shape (winter, salt, etc) Thanks for the infos and sorry for my frenchy english. Yann

Re: Gold moroso's
You could always have some anodized. Take some chrome ones to a shop that does it.

Man, those things were everywhere in the mid-80s. I recall they had blue ones too.

Re: Gold moroso's
Be patient and don't pay too much for them. I see em everywhere for sale. $50-125 is about right for a mint set.

Re: Gold moroso's
Thank guys, he want 160$ shipped (shipping cost is 70$ to Canada)
They are brand new, only mounted once, I think it's a fair deal. Dont want to deal with paint/anodizing shops

Yep -- pretty flimsy and they leak. Bought a set and put them on a BBC (street driven) and took them off after about a month ... trick for competition, but not an everyday car ... Just sayin' TAZ [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
