  2. I don't think I've ever seen leather straps for holding down the valve covers before.

    1. Or a Caddy from the 365 era.
      How many guesses do I get for a quarter?

  5. Looks like the same styling as the Leslie Special in The Great Race!

  6. I'm thinking Olds or Cadillac. As there are also bolts on those valve covers the leather straps are just for show.

  7. That is a small block Chevy block(409or348 heads were very differently shaped).
    The aftermarket injectors are nice but not uncommon, but the valve covers are
    new to me. They appear to be styled after early "nail head" Buick . They look like they
    are pin located instead of being bolted down, with quick release straps for valve
    adjustment. Be Interested to know if this is an old aftermarket item and who would have made it.

  8. That fuel setup must just pour gasoline into the engine.

  9. The leather straps on the rocker covers are a little frou-frou.
