    Looking good, have you thought about putting some sort of black screen behind the grill to kind of hide the electric fan, and radiator?

    I may have a buddy over at throttlejockeyoriganals make me a louverd insert with more of a peak in the center. So I can run a larger fan and also hide it a bit ..

    I really like what you have done with the car, I have an 8ba going in my coupester too and can't wait to fire it up. I still have lots of work to do but it's inspiring to see a coupester that is pretty much finished and looking really good! Attached is s pic of my project :)
