    Well, it appears we are going to cast another set of 6.

    I am really pleased people have appreciated them.

    Thank you all!

    The cam covers look great.

    I once repainted a tool box and approximated the wrinkle finish by sprinkling fine sand onto the wet paint and dabbing it a bit with a dry brush. Then of course sprayed on a coat of the finish color. Was not 100% -- but pretty good.

    As they say, Idle hands...so we went ahead and made 6 more 250 GT valve covers
    and already 2 went out. Likewise with the Dino covers.

    Thank you Tom, for the enthusiasm and kind support.

    Kind regards, Alberto

    Im interested in the remaining valve covers. Can you post a pic? Also, you mentioned you can't find wrinkle finish paint? I believe Eastwood products sells it. Suppose it could react with fibreglass.

    The valve covers (2) are in Spain, thus saving considerable shipping cost.

    Please pm, if you care to discuss this further.
