31 Cowl lacing width?

My car is in the paintshop and I don't have access to it and I'm looking at some rubber lacing for my cowl and grille. Anyone know what the width of the opening that goes around the cowl on a 31?

Youther lacing is about 1/2 inch wide with the slot being close to 3/4 inch opening .

Thanks Dude!!!!!

Youther, You might find a catalog from "Bratton's Antique Auto Parts" quite interesting. I have ordered many parts from them for my "Resto Rod" '29 and often get one day delivery. On my fiberglass replica every stock part has fit so far. They have hood webbing and many other small parts that you don't realize you need until you get into the details. Order toll free at 800-255-1929. They have told me they think there are still about 150,000 Model A cars registered in the U.S. and that keeps them is business. I find that hard to believe but restorers have saved a lot of them and rodders often treasure the orginal titles and that keeps them in DMV files. They are located in Mount Airy MD and that explains why delivery is quick in Virginia. As I recall you have an original metal body and should find it neat to actually replace missing original parts like trim and door handles, etc. Although their number is 1929 they carry a full line of parts for 1928-1931 Model A cars.

Thanks Don. I looked at their site and found some other things I need. I'll order from them and tell them that you sent me.
