Well, the title says it all... would there be any interest from the GMC guys for reproduction Plaid valve covers?

I think I could have this done if there's interest.

Try asking on the www.oldgmctrucks.com/ site. Might get some more interest there.

That is correct, but I think, that is indicated by the topic title...

I, too, am interested. We are going to be doing a '63 GMC K2500 long bed stepside with them, as well as, a '63 GMC K2500 4-door crew cab with the plaid valve covers.

I would be interested...the originals are hard to find and ebay drives the price up beyond reasonableness (and my means for plaid valve covers)

I wonder if the plaid was a decal or painted on?

Rick,

The valve covers were covered with an industrial grade plastic material that was applied by heat-sink method. I have a set on my V-6.
