Hey Guys,
Christmas has come early for me for I have copped an original Triumph alloy  
valve cover.  I paid way too much but still an amount south of the $1,100  
Lucas battery on eBay.  Besides I have some extra cash now that I have  quit my 
2.5 pack a day cigarette habit for 3 months now. This thing is  a beautiful 
piece  to behold.  Cloisonne Triumph World with the Script  Triumph lettering on 
a bronze plate in the center of a gleaming finned and  polished aluminum cover.
 
Just a few problems.  If anyone has one of these, is the center plate  
riveted or screwed on?  Someone has removed the plate to polish it on the  one I 
have.  This plate has a few flaws in the Powder Blue World water and  the Signal 
Red script lettering.  Anyone know if this can be  repaired?  Last and most 
important although the cover is complete with the  unique, big & goofy hold down 
screws it is missing the oil filler cap.   Anyone have a clue where to find a 
suitable replacement?
 
This thing is sweet, not sure where I will use it.
Life is Good,
Darrell
