Default Re: 1929 Repro vs. Original Radiator Shell

Thanks Tom. That shows some things I wasn't aware of. The neck part, in particular, just isn't right on the repros. The hood bushing sits too far forward to accommodate a quail (hood hits the tail when opened); and the whole front view is just mushy and puffy compared to originals. Plus the light holes are for earlier 28. If you use it for Twolite cars, as I did on my coupe, you have to enlarge those holes.
