That be a BS1 valve cover. I got me one of those so It can't be too rare.

i've not seen one like that one... it's quite similar to what i have, cept i can't take the emblem off like that, and a couple other minor details...

Mine was the original gold color but it was flaking off and starting to rust a little so I painted it.

yep, I have the same valve cover on my car - it has the A16A1, It only came on the models with the earliest 3rd gens I suppose. Looks cool though!!
