So, I'm building a traditional hot rod and was going to use a Nailhead motor until I ran into a deal on a Caddy that I couldn't refuse, so it's time to offload my Buick parts. What I have is a 264 nailhead with 60's hurst 'hot rod' motor mounts, an old adaptor to a muncie 4-speed, and a set of the aluminum raised-letter BUICK valve covers. I also have a couple extra flywheels and starters. It was a package deal that a friend pulled out of an old hot rod. I saw an eBay ad awhile back for a set of the REAL valve covers and mine had the same foundry markings as these, so I think they may be real parts, not knock-offs.
Valve Covers
So, Buick dudes, how do I tell if they're real? What are they from? And what are they worth? I don't wanna get rich or anything, just not trying to get screwed by someone who's gonna flip em to make a couple bucks. I'd like to see them end up on the right motor, maybe even the right car.
Flywheels/Starters
I think the flywheels may be somewhat rare due to the fact that most Buicks had autos, them being luxury cars, but I don't know what a 264 flywheel fits. I don't want to sell someone something that doesn't fit their vehicle. Any idea on fair market value?
Thanks in advance and I know these types of posts can be annoying, but I'm going to price my stuff fairly, just trying to make sure I don't get completely hosed. Also, before someone calls me out on this, I posted the same thing on another forum, just gather info AND I already used the search feature to no avail and searched completed eBay listings.
