hi all
i have one of the ultra rare beige colored valve covers. it has the 
prerequisite oil stains on it where the fill cap is located. this exciting item 
is on a 
1987 lebaron coupe with equally rare big dent in the right rear quarter 
panel, and factory floor carpet delete. this fine automobile has a painted 
metal 
floor, easy to vaccuum up if so desired. this creampuff also has the rare "full 
floating" tilt steering column, and equally rare factory installed oil puke 
catch can.

actually i am describing my lebaron turbo coupe work car. LOL

i have never seen a white valve cover on a TD (unless someone specifically 
made it that way themselves). on 8 valve cars i have only seen silver painted 
ones, and black whinkle ones. the early from 1984 to 1989 silver ones that i 
have seen in the junkyard all seem to have a white or off white primer sprayed 
on 
them under the silver paint. when i redid my VC for my lebaron and cleaned it 
up. laquer thinner took off the remaining silver paint and exposed this 
primer coat. it looks like dirty white paint underneath the silver paint. i 
have 
seen many of these cars in the junkyard in various stages of decay. the valve 
covers are usually ranging from silver to faded silver with the white primer 
showing.

ALL the silver valve covers were painted silver. none of them were raw 
aluminum except where the factory machined off where the letters and fins are 
located, i assume for a hi tech look. i have messed with these cars since they 
were 
new from 1986 on up. i have only seen silver in various stages of wear and 
black wrinkle.
