I found these old Edelbrock cast valve covers for my 408 Dart Sport. Glass beaded and painted with VHT wrinkle paint. Got some negative feed back from the older guys, what do you think of them?
Finished my valve covers

sweet!
Looks nice! I have seen the tops of the fins unpainted and that looks good too to break up the style of them. But what matters is your happiness.

Thought about that. Found a nice cast air cleaner top, black with fins sanded off that would match nice.

Look good. I do like the look with the paint removed from the top of the fins, but that is just me.

my thoughts exactly
polish the fins, and it will fit in much better with the aluminum intake and polished brake fluid reservoir
not saying it looks bad, just saying i think i could look better

Not my cup of tea but just because we have varied opinions doesn't make anyone a 'hater'... hell I have some stock chromed ones on my sb 383 with mig welded breathers on 'em. Ugly as sin but they work ok with stock rockers.... not so good with the T&D's.

..we all can't like the same thing or there would only be one car done one way!
Having said that, i'm not a fan of jewelry on my cars but i don't hate cars with a bit.

Well done. I like them being different. You used your imagination, that's what our hobby is supposed to be about!
P.S. I'm an old guy too.

Thanks for the compliments and the honesty. I like how they turned out and I think for the most part others will too.
