Hello Sages,
I im in the Process of refinishing a Valve cover / Heater Hose Holder / PCV Valve, Deleting the road draft tube for one of my '62's
The Donor Engine for this Valvecover was a fairly Original 170 Had Had been in the Weather with a hood open for a while... so the Engine Was Full of water and Basically a Core 170.
That '62 170 Is donating its Valve cover and other Top of engine goodies to my other '62's 225. (the PO Put a Gaudy Chinese Chrome Valvecover on it with improper baffling etc... Its not my thing and it does not work well.)
Anyway, I want to know the Proper color of the Oil Filler Cap... I could not tell if the cap I had was White or yellow...
Upon beginning to hit it with the Abrasive Blaster it Was clear that it was previously a canary yellow.
So to my next question.. is the canary yellow for the filler cap the correct one for this car? - A '62 Valiant?
It's possible that the cap could have been pulled of a truck engine...! which were Yellow.
All of the car Filler Caps that I could have remember seeing were Black, but my previous experiences goes back to only '63's No 60-62 Slants in my earlier days.
Thank you!
Greg
