Hood grill KE35 SR

[Adrien]

Hi,

 

I don't Know if you could help me, did the grill aerator on the bonnet was an option for the Corolla KE35? or depend the year?

 

 

Thanks in advance

Think the chrome vents were on the early KE3#'s. Might have been only on the "import" models.......

Hi Adrien,

                  Welcome aboard !  Where are located ?

I have a  1974 KE30, here in Australia, that was assembled by AMI in Melbourne.  It has the traditional KE Rolla bonnet, shape, & has the chrome air flow grills at the back.

I have some body parts from my 1979 "deceased" KE55 2 door coupe, (died of cancer) which had the bonnet with the front raised lip on it, but its air grills, were simply pressed. (no chrome insert)

  The KE55 coupe was very similar to your KE35 coupe.

Interestingly, the 3 bar chrome grill you have there seems to be much wider than the 2 bar one on my KE30.

 

I don't think it would be too hard to cut out your bonnet, & insert the chrome grills you have acquired.

Have you just acquired your KE35 ?

Cheers Banjo
