This has been glass beaded inside and out and is ready for paint. There is some light pitting that I think a few coats of primer would take care of and NO dents. Ford made numerous valve covers for these cars. Including stamping of the name FORD, different fillers, PCV valve grommets and heater hose brackets just to name a few. Please look at all of the pictures to see the condition for yourself before deciding. If you are having any doubts at all then please don't purchase this as there are no returns. Your bid is made knowing this is correct for your vehicle and that all questions have been answered to your satisfaction as all sales are final!!
