Re: fiberglass undercarriage cover



I've made an under carriage cover that runs fron inner fender well to inner
fender well front apron to front sway bar. The wet belt prob stopped. some
noise but had to add a vent because under hood temps came up a bit. Noe it's
in the corner since i'm started to move parts from the 84 to the 88
