Any one interested?
Found this on ebay and was wondering if anyone else had seen it? Nice dress up panels. Not mine, just sharing info.

Re: Any one interested?
in theory, that would also help with cooling too. The improvement would be marginal, but it would help.

Re: Any one interested?
If it was made from a material that could be painted it would do much better.

I like them - I ordered a set from northwest fab last week - waiting to see when he will call me back with a delivery date - price was much better but they are not polished just satin

Re: Any one interested?
I have a similar piece on my 67 Camaro (painted black) that I ought off Ebay and it does help a little with cooling, keeps the air from trying to squeeze over the radiator support/radiator. I also fabbed my own blockoff plate for the area under the radiator to prevent hot engine air from being pulled back into the front of the radiator when the car is not moving. The idea is to force as much cool air through the radiator core and not allow any air to go around, over or under the core and not allow any hot engine air to reach the front of the radiator. Makes a difference with my 396 but a small block would probably not need all that.

Re: Any one interested?
On a truck with more chrome, it would look better.
