Small stainless mesh grilles in side scoops

[Jim Rosenthal]

Some photos of early GT40s, especially road cars, show stainless mesh grilles set into the side scoops in the rear clip/bodywork. Has anyone seen a set of these for sale anywhere? If possible, I would like to have them for my car. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Like these Jim ?

Exactly. Those are indeed the ones.

 

[Jim Rosenthal]

Did you make those or buy them?

 

[HILLY]

Custom made.
I dare say all bodywork may vary slightly so best to make them to fit your vent apatures.

Right. Undoubtedly what I'll end up doing.
