Nice use of garden hose!  |
I ran one with a green garden hose for years like that.... Looked bad, it fit.. and worked.
After all the heat cycles.. it was permanently molded into shape..

Actually the owner paid a shop to rebuild it and found the problem after the engine ate #4 exhaust. He's got a topic here, i hope he gets satisfaction.

If i am not mistaken, Kubelwagens (and the few KDF's produced during the war) had the cooling tins above the cylinders, the idea being that air would split in two at the top and "cover" the cylinder area from the sides. Shortly after they changed to the familiar setup.
