Radiator Screen

Screen Project

Notice how the screens are stacked. The one with the 1/2in openings is in the back while the finer mesh (regular door screen) is in front. I used wire as oppose to cloth screen. It forms better.

Also notice how the screens are mounted under the center spar. The bolts on the far right and left (out of view) are also holding the screens. I just realized that a better picture might be how this looks right now, so I went out and took this new picture. Took 50seconds to do. Isn't this new technology great?

See the leaves?

While the screen system was designed to keep leaves and other debris from reaching the radiator, recently it was discovered that it is effective against misc auto debris.

See picture of electrical connector found embedded in the screen recently.
