@ MrSeth
Looks good. I wasn't sure how the riveted look would work, but it fits in well with the style of your truck.
These are the vents I used years ago. They were fiberglass and came from a Ford Cosworth. I glued them on.

Here are the louvers I had punched in stainless for my ‘65 Cobra replica.

What CSX# is your Cobra? Running a 302 or 429? Helped a friend in CA restore his original back in the day for his collection. I'd sell my organs to buy his.

It was a Factory 5 Racing replica, so no CSX number. It had a built 5.0/302 with aluminum Edelbrock heads and dual quads. I sold it to a guy in Germany several years back. Really regret selling it, but needed the capital at the time to buy my Terminator and some other stuff.

Well, you replaced it with something legendary. I almost bought one when I sold my Shelby GT, but picked up a '68 302 and some other toys.
I am in the same boat- wish I never sold it.

So the louvers are still on the vehicle, they pop a little more now and look at home with the fiberglass fenders IMO.
