The Ford Barn

The early 1935 car inner fenders did not have louvers. About April they started installing the inner fenders with louvers. I assume the louvers were for cooling, ie removing the heat from the engine compartment. My car is early and does not have the louvers. I have a chance to purchase some with lovers but was wondering if anyone knew just how much these louvers help. The fellow does not want a whole lot for them but it would be a lot of work to remove the front end just to install. They must help some because I think every ford after that had the louvers.
