I made a custom radiator shroud for my TR250 out of black ABS plastic sheet. It
is available in 1/8 and 3/16 inch thicknesses. Really works great! I didn't have
a pattern so had to free hand it but I imagine you could use your fiber board
one as a pattern.

When I rebuilt the 3A, I thought to stay ahead of the game. I purchased a
fiberboard radiator duct from one of the big 3, but read on the List these
tended to disintegrate over time. So, I spray painted the thing several times
with rubberized undercoating hoping to forestall that event.B  Alas, it was
apparently inevitable.



Anyone have a longer term (read "forever") solution making this out of another
material?
