I'm looking for a set of really nice hood shelves for a low radiator car. These were used 1917-23. I have attached a picture showing what I need. Please send me a personal message. I rarely check my emails.
Thanks,
Stephen

Re: Wanted: Low radiator hood shelves
Stephen, there are minor differences in these which may/may not concern you. The last iteration had the large hole at the front end to take the hard rubber insulation bush. like the one in the centre of your photo. Another, presumably earlier, had a small hole for one wire only and that hole had a pressed in lip around it. Perhaps the earliest one was like the one in the photo. There was a U shaped cut out in the outer edge of the panel to allow the headlight wires to pass under the panel.
When available, the reproductions were all the large hole type.
