Bob,
In this months Classic and Thoroughbred, the featured marque is Aston-
Martin, and the fabulous DB 3/4/5 series cars. The piece mentions
that panels on these cars were/are hand formed by true panel beaters.
There were several A/M restorers listed, let me know and I'll fax you
the article.
FWIW, the Brooklands catalog sells several louvered panels in aluminum,
and the Eastwood company sells an interesting tool for cutting and forming
them by hand.
Louvre on!
