Can anyone recommend a shop in Houston that can punch some 3" louvers in my hood side panels? Thanks.

Maybe to far from you but he did a great job on my 57 hood. http://www.fredsfab.com/hoodlouvers.htm

Al, I did talk to Leon and he chased a few leads but no luck. I did find a local shop but they wanted $5 per louver and I needed 199 louvers. Way too expensive when new hood panels with louvers were about $400.


Tony, I did talk to Fred and he would do them if I shipped the panels to him.


I ended up sending the panels to Rootlieb and just got them back today. They did a fantastic job. Very reasonably priced. And they charged only actual cost for shipping.

Who sells Rootlieb or can you buy direct? Sent them an email but no answer.

They list dealers on their web site. http://www.rootlieb.com/


I sent the hood panels direct to Rootlieb in Turlock, CA.


Call Rod at 209-632-2203.

Wow Dan! Now THAT'S some good service! Rootlieb has always had a great name, but that's above and beyond! And it sure beats $5 per louver.
