Art & Inspiration Just Louvers////////

Thank you @Stogy I really enjoy each challenge. .

 

Do these louvers decrease in size as they go down the deck lid? Or, is that an optical illusion?

 

I think that it is an illusion. it's a combination of the contour of the deck and the sun. U thought the same thing at first.

 

YES, YES IT IS. Thanks!

 

Love this tread , here’s a few pics of louvers I just did with my homemade louver press.

 

I you want really deep lovers ? After you punch them turn the panel over and un the cut line punch another set, and this is what you get. Just like a large mouth Bass. You can see the difference it makes. Twice the work and twice the fun.

 

Hey guys. Can anyone here help me - or point me in the right direction - getting some 1.75" louvers done on a small panel? Been shopping around online with all the big "louver guys" but no one seems to go below 3".

Thanks!

 

I have a set of 2" dies I bought from England, never even set them up in the press. I'm in Mid California outside Modesto if your close

Need to try that I have a place that could use this on belly pan. Thanks for the idea.

 

Had lots of fun in the Hotrod this year but I've been absent working n' things. Thanks for keeping things going fellas...some real lookers with plenty of punching...

@1-SHOT, I'm thinking the over and under louvers that have been featured here on a few occasions must create a different airflow on top of looking different. Perhaps more volume as well...

Many thanks to the Louversmiths here sharing their functional art as well...I have great admiration for your contributions to the big picture that is Hotrod/Custom/Race

 

Check the roof.

 

...Great stuff Team Hamb...

This was an Old Drag Coupe picked up by a Hamber @Von Hartmann years ago now...hanging tire just like @-Brent- s Coupe in front of it...

​

 

...Shared by Hamber willie571 a long time ago...I wonder if he ever found out who owned it?

​

 

I Louvered my license plate and got pulled over by police and had to go get new plates issued

 

It now has 000 000 plate status or you can run it and play the Uh I did not a Know That IF they pull you over for it...At least they didn't fine you...or...did they?

...Hamber @Blake 27's Roadster Pickup simply louvered just the right amount to balance the visualization of this stunning Hotrod.
