    Finally got around to getting some louvers punched in my hood this week ...72 of them....hated to have to strip the paint, but I needed to get some more heat out from under the hood.. Rain water should do it !!!....I lucked out on the louvers ,as there is a guy about five miles from me that only charges $1.00 each and no set up fee. The old Willys should have more sex appeal after I repaint the hood this coming week.....

  4. Great job...at a great price! You will be amazed how much heat will exit through those 72 louvers....Very Nice Willy's cp.! My BB Chevy breaths a little better under the hood.

    Looks great Carey. Although I would have thought that you would have made your own louver press.
