TR2/3/3A TR3A Bonnet Louvres

Share this page

Oh sure I saw the tire track, it got run over, but yikes! How did it happen? Was it on the floor in the garage and it was accidentally run over?
 
Honey don't pull into the garage when you come home from work. OOOPS I forgot, I did not see it. I practice my metal skills from time to time on the bonnet, it will be back on a car someday.

Jeff Snook has lots of louvers, but just look at what it does to the handling!

That is by far the funniest thing I've seen/read all day.

Thanks for posting that. I often wonder if anyone gets a laugh from the weird stuff I post.
 
I have printed out that pict and posted it in my garage. I love driving sideways. (but only on purpose)
 
Dave I sent you an email.
 
For what it's worth, I decided against the louvres in the end....

Cheers

I to, like the way they look. But, I would think you'd have some problems if you got caught in the rain. I once owned an Olds 442 with a hood scoop, and every now and then the distributor cap would crack when it got wet.

I think you made a good choice...
 
I once had a Mark II MG TD with an engine-turned aluminum dash panel. Looked great until the sun hit it and blinded me.Be careful what you wish for. I wonder what happened to that car?
