I'm trying to dress up my 914/6 GT-spec car a bit and would like stamped copy of the original GT oil cooler shroud. Anyone know where to find one?

I'm guessing you mean a fiberglass replica right? If so, use the above links.

If you need a metal one, contact ScottyB...won't be quick or cheap though...

I may go that route but was thinking metal would be best if I can pull it off without breaking the bank.

Do you have a good way to reach ScottyB and is this something he currently makes and sells?

...is he here as Scotty B?

Thanks,

I need to find a sample and then I will make some up. They aren't that difficult to make them out of metal .

Yes, he's ScottyB on here, and http://www.kahikocustoms.com/ is his shop.
Ben, you can contact Scotty too, and maybe hook something up with him getting you a sample (or maybe you could make one from an FG base)

As I look more closely and think about this it may be a bigger project than I had thought.

I think the placement of the fuel cell I have may not allow the factory type oil cooler shroud to even fit..

Thoughts?

Correct, It will not. Make a pattern then some galvanized sheet metal from an hvac place - scrap - and cut and bend on a brake and then screw or rivet together. You can paint, powdercoat or leave plain. You can always have a nice one done from aluminum once you know your steel one works.

Good Call. ...car is so custom anyway as I guess a lot of true and replica GTs are anyway so what the heck. I'll just get busy and fabricate something.

$349 for a small fiberglass shroud sounds expensive to me.

I can fabricate one myself.

If you know how to do triangulation line development on light guage sheet metal then you don.t really need a press brake to form it. You can form it over the edge of a metal workbench or vise for a nice smoth transition shape. Always looks nicer. My two cents for ya.

Maybe you already know that. That type of metalworking is a lost art

With that wild of a car, maybe look into a hood exit system. Maybe mount you cooler horizontal, air from bumper coming up, through the cooler, then out the hood. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

...not quite what I had in mind when I said I wanted to dress the car up.

It will stay a caged, race car but just going to tidy up a few things. I've got the GT headlight kit ready to go in and will probabaly put some period style seats in it along with a bit of perlon carpet and put windows back in the car. ...after a small modificaton to the cage so they will clear.

Car runs plenty cool by the way as is.
