Greg, Very cool and I will look for your thread. Let's stay in touch.
Here is the engine lid I butchered. It was already drilled so i had little to lose. I made a punch and die to make my louvers so
If anyone wants anything louvered I'm your guy ! I love punching louvers..
I started forming a tiny ducktail "missing link" spoiler, but won't clutter it up with that i don't think. Porsche racing cars had spoilers out back in '68 so i was thinking it could have been done by an enthusiast back in the day prior to the ducktail making its appearance.
