    I bought one from Brookville and put it in my Dearborn Deuce. I think it's a great idea, very useful.

    Not to BUTT in on your thread but I believe you would have a good bit of trouble getting the metal Brookville piece to stay bonded with the fiberglass Downs body.

    I would try and find a fiberglass manufacturer ... with a cowl vent

    Wescott has the vent lid itself in glass along with the hinge, screen, & handle. They may have to scrap a body from time to time so it would be worth it to contact them if they can cut out the trough portion, or maybe they've had enough inquiries for guys who've decided to retro a bit that they've splashed some just for this purpose.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
