Left and Right have 2 extra pair of holes close together and there is also a larger single hole on the driver(left)side Are they for mirrors and antenna? They may need to be filled if all I want is the top air vent and wipers. They don't even match location of stock 5in round mirrors. Anybody have any ideas? http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/kvandatta/media/1952%20Chev%20Truck%20Cowl/MirrorLeftCowl.jpg.html
Your not trying hard enough if you don�t screw up every once in a while.

John | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 28 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 28 | Thanks for confirming no easy fix on these oddball holes. They are to close to the hood when opened to be usefull when mounting stock mirrors. It looks like more bodywork and painting is in my future.
