I have a 65 conv. Many years ago when junkyarding for parts, I have seen
64's & 65"s with the chrome foil type"IMPERIAL" valve cover stickers AND an
IMPERIAL air cleaner BAND-not a pie pan like on the 66's & up.
It is made of thin aluminum, some places reproduce this on a flat sheet
that you trim out. Looks like the one
on E Bay once in a while advertised. Anyway, I added these to my car. But
some say that it is not original,
but I have saw enough of them that way 20+ years ago off the street and
ready for the bone-yard, before they
were desireable to restore. Rob

> I always thought that the '65 had the applique on the valve covers and
that the '66 had the pie pan on the air cleaner. Although as old cars I have
seen these items interchanged, I never was aware that any cars came new with
both. I would be interested to hear a concensus on this.
