A little bling

I saw this on a friends TR3 and loved the style so much that I had to have one. It looks so koool and I think it makes the TR run faster with the aerodynmic fins.

Offy's look best painted red with the polished bits rubbed free of paint.
At least on my flatmotors they do!
 
Yeah, I've got one of those stashed away for my 3A - I do think it makes it run faster, the airflow over those fins has something to do with it. And come to think of it, red would look good in those grooves..

p.s. Nice touch with the cap, Dan - I think I found the same one but hadn't thought of the filler decal. Looks good!
 
Bling always makes a car go faster!!! And a touch of red with some bling is a marvelous idea. Now why didn't I think of that???
 
Very nice job on the whole car, not just the valve cover. GREAT WORK
 
Dan,

Very nice.

Thanks for showing it. I also like the oil cap and fasteners.

Where can I get the same?

Is that octagonal thing before the carbs a fuel pressure regulator?
 
7 lbs. radiator cap.
 
Thanks Guys Yes there is a lot of hours in the car and now I am spending lots of miles behind the wheel, SO MUCH FUN!!
The oil cap came from Kragens and the fasteners are from Moss.
 
The octagonal thing is a 7 lb water pressure regulator.
