Still looking for left and right horns access covers for '54 Kaiser. This has been a long search as well.

Doc, I haven't forgotten about your request for the access plates. I haven't been back to the yard yet, but I have looked through all my photos to see if I could be sure that there were some. I didn't see any.

I haven't forgotten, and If I do find some, you will be the first person I contact.

Did you check with Terry Zeug? He has lots of used parts from cars he parted (or at least he did).

I'm parting out a '54. Which part is it? Is it the cover held by 3 screws?

These covers were routinely removed in the mistaken idea that cooling would be improved. They were actually added by the factory to imrove air flow to the radiator.

Hey thanks!  That was actually quite fast. I'll reimburse you for shipping and handling time I get the package.

Les, the horn access plates arrived today and I've already sanded them down and primed one side.  They will look very nice once I paint them.  Reimbursement will be in the mail tomorrow.  Thanks very much!  The K/F forum sure helped out this time.
