Jay,

I'd like to see some good pictures of the louvers you put on your car. Where did you source them?

Tks

I get so many people ask about the louvers it's not funny. You would think they would make them again with how much interest there is in them. Of course for me it helps my Bird stand out a little, and I don't mind telling my story,so I'm glad you asked.
Back in 1993 I was at a car show with it when a guy came up to me asking if I'd be interested in the louvers and a set of smoke headlight covers. I'd seen one T-Bird in the area with them and wanted them but didn't know where to buy them even back then. So of course I told him I was, depending on the price. He told me his car got t-boned and was totaled so he just wanted to recoupe a little cash, he only wanted $100.00 for it all!!! I couldn't say I wanted them fast enough! So that's my story, it was just a case of being at the right place at the right time! I've had a few offers but I'll never sell them, anytime I raise them up to clean the window it just doesn't look right without them.
