1934 Radiator a splash Pan

[WRA]

Folks,

Where does this panel go? My google & Ford Barn Search really didn't come up with anything. I started with a body and frame so I have a lot of missing pieces.

Pics will be helpful. Thanks.

Under the radiator.

Pretty much as it is pictured is the view from the front of the car. The hole on each side is where the lower radiator mount bolts go through.

WRA has received the answer to his question about these Splash Aprons. They mount under the Radiator. I have these 2 examples which I photographed. The unpainted one is off my dismantled 1933 Ford while the painted one is off my 1934 Ford. You can see that the early one has 4 attached nuts to mount it, while on the late one, has just has 2 holes? I guess that Ford must have modified this part sometime during production? I had to repair some holes in the one off my 1934 Ford, as it had rust holes from water leaking out of my Radiator. This may be a common problem with this part, sitting under the Radiator? The top photo shows how they fit allowing access for the Crank Handle.

The deletion of the clinch nuts on the '34 version was a cost savings, but it sure made installation more difficult for the guy(s) on the assembly line.

One thing led to another and I found this drawing on Vanpelt Sales. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
