Default Re: 66 Buick GS at Mecum Indy

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: olredalert</div><div class="ubbcode-body">----Tom,,,I just looked a bit closer at the pics and it suddenly hit me that this is the last year for the &quot;Nailhead&quot;. While extremely good looking, the aluminum valve covers would be incorrect. Plain old stamped steel valve-covers would have come on the car new. While looking at that, the engine pic seems to show a Riviera dual-quad air-cleaner, also never an option on any Gran Sport. I think the correct single quad a-c was smaller in diameter and a bit taller, although I could be wrong. I also think the car might show a bit better if the under dash guages were all in one holder as opposed to being hung separatly.....Bill S </div></div>

Pretty sure the Riviera's had those valve covers in 66...maybe the option list for a GS ??
