Title: Side Scoop Rear Ducting Installation
Post by: tschwingle on March 08, 2023, 09:44:38 PM
We are finally finishing up my car, and before they put the interior back into the car, I am asking that they install the ducting for the rear scoops.   Unfortunately, I no longer have the original wheel wells so the restoration shop doesn't have a good guide of where the hole should be made into the wheel well.   Does anyone have a some installation instructions/pictures of where the hole "should" be for the rear ducts?   Not a lot of information on this that I could find in a variety of forums and the internet searches.

Thanks in Advance!
