Yeah, tell me about it. I just got the issue in a few days ago, it looks good and should be very functional. I don't know about boxing in the carbs for my set-up? But it looks good, and to think I wanted to be the first guy to do it on a ACVW. Oh well I guesse I'l have to settle for being the first guy to do it to a German Look  !!!Panel: I looked at the site you posted, and I have to say that was almost the exact same thing I am doing, I am running the airto the rear quarter panels (exact spot as the cresant vents) and to the engine bay. But I am also going to make my own scoops to go over the cresant vents to get MORE air to the engine... Though I'm kinda sad to say, I like the fact that other people around the US have the same basic idea for air intake  John

OH yeah I forgot to mention something...
The cresant vents don't really leed to the engine bay at all. They vent to the rear window...at least on my '72 they did. Has any one else known about that? John

I'm not going to have pre-stamped steel, but I might bead roll it a little if I feel like it. BTW, doesen't it make the metal stonger? If I just weld it will it be strong enough? Don't know.... John

I didn't know that before. I still might do glass or carbon. I'm a ways off from doing this so I have time to make up my mind John

nice Yuki...I like the street car the best...although the racer is just awsome
.Though I was thinking about doing something like this to my 72 Super, I was going to graft on a front and rear bumper from a Porsche 996 Turbo.... If that didnt work out for me the way I plan it too...I will keep your company in mind when looking for a different front spoiler! Thanks for the links :agree: Oh....I would just like to add that I have cut into the roof and have started the intake...but I might redo the whole thing....I hope to get some picture of the work ive done onn the roof so far...just to see what other people think!
