Engine lid number two , with kleinbus louvers and painting epoxy primer .


Did you patch in the louvers in this engine lid also or did you form them with a louver press or another tool?

Dan
Those are original kleinbus louvers , and i welding it to engine lid. .


I looked for a website selling those louvered panels called "Kleinbus", and I can't find anything. I would like to put some just like that behind my license plate.
Where did you get it?

Really looking good. Dont know I I had mentioned rear fenders and what you are using. One of the problems is that using a stock bug fender is that when you slice it straight back across the top, it has a banana shape when viewed from the side (thicker in the middle). Thats the main reason I ended up using Morris Traveler rear fenders on the woodie and the hearse.
