Smooth Cowl - Who Wants One? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-09-2008, 06:31 PM

This delete COWL was on EBay this past week. I immediately contacted
the seller, his name is Tony, and asked about one with ZERO holes. Told
him I wanted a totally shaved one with no wiper holes or anything. Last
night I got an e-mail from him and he said he was going to make it since
the other one sold for more than his costs. I need actuall interest count.
Please let me know if you would be interested in one. Price will probably
be in this range and not sure how much shipping would add to it. I just
wanted to share this with my family here since I might not be the only
person wanting 1 of these. Let me know as soon as you can, TY, Craig

I would be interested in 2 of them pending a price but I wanted the wiper holes.

Me too, but just one.

67c-10Texas · 02-10-2008, 01:37 AM

what is the price - i am interested - with wiper holes though

NitroMike · 02-10-2008, 03:29 AM

I'd be interested in one at or around the $202.00 price.

68 short step · 02-10-2008, 03:33 AM

put me inline for being instrested....anyone have first hand experence with how it fit?

Gary · 02-10-2008, 03:48 AM

What would this do to your heater and AC operation? I would love the look but if it makes the heater and AC not work right I'd be less inclined.

I'd still want wipers though

like the one in the original auction.

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-10-2008, 05:26 AM

Like I said, I assume the price would be about what his last one sold for.
As for functionality not sure it helps the Heat or A/C

When he e-mails
me back I will discuss both styles with him and see what he is willing to
do for us. It appears most want the wiper holes based on the responces.
As for fit, dunno it was the 1st one he ever made, he was going to use
it on his own ride then chose not to. Maybe he'll give me buyers e-mail?

1LoC10 · 02-10-2008, 05:37 AM

it really wouldnt be all that much to have someone weld up the holes on your stocker

Robznob11 · 02-10-2008, 01:31 PM

it would not affect the heat or ac in any way its a diff venting system all together...

Well heck I wanted to smooth my cowl long ago and I had several people tell me "your heater won't heat for crap since it needs that air flow from the cowl".

Are you positive this won't affect the heat or air in any way? Because I definitely want to smooth my cowl or buy one already smoothed.

corn · 02-10-2008, 02:56 PM

Those look really nice but Id rather have a metal one.

Robznob11 · 02-11-2008, 12:51 AM

the cowl bassicly just delivers the air to you kick panel vents, the heater box contains the core under the hood and then passes through the fire wall and connects to a vent system that has hoses that to to the defroster and sends heat out under the dash. you would help prevent your truck from rusting out if you close them off because leaves and water won't be able to get stuck in there as easy.. you will loose function of your kick panel vents. but my self I never liked running them cause they put so much dirt in your truck

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-11-2008, 03:31 AM

I linked him this thread, maybe he will sign on and answer some of our questions

10.5stang · 02-11-2008, 03:58 AM

atp · 02-11-2008, 10:35 AM

I would be interested but would also need wiper holes.

Robznob11 · 02-11-2008, 11:36 AM

well i just noticed that this is fiberglass, id like to have one but can't afford it but ill tell you what i have a perfect factory radiodelete cowl id be willing to trade for one...

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-11-2008, 09:17 PM

He told me this morning he was going to try and sell them around $200 for board
members. He has another he's putting on Evil Bay for around $230-$250 with the
BIN option. Shipping is the most difficult part of it as most of you probably know,
He looked at this thread and was amazed at how many people had an interest in
one. YES it is glass and not metal, some people may not like that. He also said he
had started on the deleted version with ZERO holes for me so we shall see. From
what I can tell he's willing to make them with or without the wiper holes.

Craig

Robznob11 · 02-12-2008, 03:47 AM

id rather it be glass less weight...

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-12-2008, 04:21 AM

I figured a few of the racers / stoplight to stoplight guys wouldn't care

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-25-2008, 07:39 AM

He has another one ready, it's on Evil Bay right now

boot_smart · 02-27-2008, 06:57 AM

Well with that being said that you wont get no air from your kick panels. Us guys with no AC will just have to suffer with the vented cowls. To bad I seen the one on evil bay, looks nice.

sleeper67 · 02-29-2008, 07:48 AM

thats a nice piece i want a place in line.

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-29-2008, 07:53 AM

He told me that 1 of the 2 he has made was purchased by a Member on HERE

So who got it? How does it fit? Was it shipped w/out damage? Bueller?

shifty · 02-29-2008, 08:56 AM

I'd be interested, but only if it's steel. I don't do fiberglass parts.
