    projects and stories here. Thank you.

    Like what you've got going on there OldBolts.
    One question, what tire sizes are you using on your roadster?
    Thanks...,

    I'm curious what hood this is. The holes are in the wrong spot. The front two louvers are too long. Early Rootlieb?

    I will make it fit, but wonder if I should bother shortening the front two louvers.

    The holes will be moved, but don't know where they go exactly. Any help would be great. Thanks, Eric

    Yes, that's an earlier Rootlieb before they got the look right on their 25 louver sides. Their new ones are spot on. Those older ones are just a few extra louvers on a 20 louver side.
