Arlie, If you can get me measurements of the side holes. i.e. horizontal and vertical measurements, I can compare to stock Mustang shrouds. Hopefully the radiator is situated so that the fan is will be centered in the shroud with those mounting holes.

What happened? did they run out of money before they built the rear wheel skirts, and the steer horns for the front of the hood? Double yuck.
