I know that the Jabbeke Triumph had louvers--looked incredible. I've been
toying with turning my cheatin' dog TR3 into a Jabbeke replica. Of course
I'll probably be tossed bodily out of any place I try to run it, but I'll be
stylin'.

Subject: Louvered Hoods
Can anyone on the list document pre-1972 use of a louvered hood on a TR2
or 3 in a United States race event. If so, are there any pictures?
We are completing the 1959 TR3A for vintage racing, and want to explore
all vintage legal ways to get air out from under the hood. There are
several other options, but louvers look best, if allowed.
Thanks,
Richard
