    Buyer beware

    I have been waiting for the Dennis Carpenter 1970 24” fan shrouds to come available again for over a year.

    NPD finally got some, so I ordered enthusiastically.   

    It came, and is not even close to the original 70 shroud I have had in my 66 for over 20 years.

    So, if you need one, and you want it to fit and look like an original, don’t get your hopes up.

    It does not have the same shape as original and has a huge 1” gap at the top for about 1/2 to 3/4 of the width of the core.

    If you don’t give a rip about how it looks or fits, this is the shroud for you.

    This is the shroud for 70 Mustang with 24” radiator and 302, 351w, 351c with AC or Boss 302

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
