1939 Super 8. The engine bay cover that attach to the fenders, do the louvers face fore or aft? I think forward but a friend says aft.

thanks

Steve

Welcome, Steve

For some reason I can't seem to get a photo to attach to show how the inner fender panels are arranged on my 39 S-8.
I don't think you can get them on backwards because I have struggled to do just that.
The panels ( I think ) are arranged to let hot air out, the scoops in the panels are on the outside, towards the tire.
I don't think I have described this very well, I do have a picture and if you want to PM with your e-mail I can e-mail it to you.

Jim, have you tried rename the file (photo) sometimes a device will add characters that are not acceptable.

Thanks for the suggestion, Wesley.

I have tried renaming the file with no luck.
I also tried posting pics on an alternative browser.
I am able to post pics on the Packard Classics site and on the AACA forum. Also on the Studebaker Drivers Club site, pics post with no problem.

Kind of frustrating.

Jim
