It is a bit of a pity that we can only add 5 photos per post. I have thousands and have to pick out the ones to use and then resize them, save them and then put them into the order I want to show.

Anyway on we go.

The radiator being at the rear means that there must be some sort protection to stop the air from pressurizing the engine compartment as you drive forward which would stop the fan from drawing air through the radiator and past the engine.

To do this there are panels under the engine which stop the air coming up from below and help direct the warm air out towards the rear of the vehicle.

Fortunately for me, all of the panels were there, badly bent up, but all there and I was able to panel beat them out successfully.

The radiator also has a sealed shroud around it for the same reason. I'll show that later.
