Re: Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

Wheels and Ron,

I have replied to both of you ..so I dont know what is going on with my email.

As is stated above in a couple of different places..please conatct Chris directly as my container has been delayed...meaning "no free shipping" for valve covers

[ QUOTE ]
GUYS....
Due to unforseen circumstances my container will not be leaving the UK for another month minimum...SO.....Chris may be contacting you about doing a direct shipment from him to you...unfortunately it wont be free international shipping,like I provide.
If you have paid Chris please drop him an email and let him know whether you would like him to ship directly or not...


[/ QUOTE ]

Chris's email is "melchrismelia@aol.com"

[ QUOTE ]
£200 per set plus shipping email me direct please.

regards

Chris Melia.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know for a fact that he has another ten sets being made at the moment so don't panic guys....sorry for the confusion

Re: Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

hi Bill

yours went in the post last Friday 11 November, the day after I got your shipping address. The US postal service can take up to two weeks I understand unless customs decides to play games.

Regards

Chris.

Thanks Chris!

I got mine about a week ago, so I got the chance to bore the relatives with them over Thanksgiving!

Oh, well, it was fun for me...

Did you use them to hold the cranberry sauce or sweet potatoes?

On my dining room table I have a replica Weber carburetor salt and pepper shakers. The trumpets are the shakers and the body opens up to store toothpicks and sugar packets.

Hi all

Just to let you guys know that I have just collected another batch of Gurney Westlake replica valve covers, I have shipped out two sets already to Jim Downard, and Paul Wheeler.
So I currently have 8 sets for sale.

Re: Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

Chris,
Got my covers Wednesday Dec. 28. Beautiful. Super smooth exchange. I paid, Chris made, Chris shipped, I recieved. Simple, smooth, and well worth the asking price. I think I'll have them painted black and have the tops polished like I saw in an earlier post. Thanks for you effort Chris.

Re: Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

What about some sort of valve cover spacer with both bolt patterns. Something you could bolt to the head then bolt the valve cover to? I am sure someone could make it, just not me!
