Hello, I have a fibreglass 1932 roadster body in which I replicated myself a cowl vent gutter and cowl vent (starting from original dimensions and dimension of the cowl seal). Now my question is: 1) how was the seal installed originally (was it glued in the gutter) or was it glued to the underside of the cowl vent? I do not seem to find any picture of original ones with the seal installed... 2) another question I have is what the use of the 'drain tube' was which I see in some pictures of the cowl vent channel? If the seal was glued in the channel / gutter), I suppose this would block the drain tube anyway or do I see this wrong? Thanks!! Filip
Original 32's have an inner gutter to the gutter that has a drain attached to it. Your recreation probably doesn't.
