That is a super cool mod!

I was considering doing a manufactured bolt/rivit louvers mod to my truck since I don't have a louver punch or paint shop! :D

Have you noticed any engine temp reduction beyond the COOL LOUVERS! factor?

Your whole truck looks pretty great!

I have Cruiser Envy!

Thank you for all your support in building the 80. Top notch shop, amazing products with the highest build quality, and a staff that far exceeds what I would consider excellent. :cheers: Thank you Christo and make sure Ben and Joe know how much I appreciate all they have done to make this a reality.
 
id love to get my hands on some louver dies

I'll block them off and take some readings for all...a kind of before and after sort of thing.

So when do we get a ROTW on this thing, or did I miss it?

As soon as it is done....;)
 
Those look awesome! thats does it, i'm gonna stop by my friends shop and see what model louver machine he has. I haven't used one in a long time.
 
Those look amazing!!!

On a side note... Does the passenger side ANCO wiper blade make full contact? I had a set of those on my LC and after reading all of the threads about using OEM blades, I switched back. Night and day difference! The ANCO passenger side blade would loose contact at the outer edge, the OEM blade stays in touch for the whole swipe. Just sharing my experience.

Absolutely gorgeous looking Land Cruiser!!!

Well crap, then that means mine looks ugly too. Thanks a lot.

Very Very cool Treeroot.
 
AMAZING!!!! l love it.
 
Saw this truck tonight and it is an awesome vehicle. Mike has really done a great job and those louvers are great. You could feel the heat coming out of them.
 
Is Mike so enamored with the 80 series that he abandoned his other children?
