Hello everybody, Most of the cars I've seen on this forum have grilles in the rear compartment. Narrow grilles that go accross the width of the compartment and around the oil cap. My 343 built in April 1963 does not have those grilles. See pictures. Inside the open compartment a decal in German language gives a warning (My German is not that good, but I understand that this is a warning against the fall of some luggage pieces (?)) I have looked very carefully and cannot find any support nor screw holes that could be used to fix such grilles. The question is : is it possible that my car was built without those grilles ? My best regards. Attachments:

You guessed right, your 1963 was built before these grilles were designed. The grilles were introduced in mid-1963.

Missed them by a couple of months, then ! At least, this is a T34 part that I won't have to be looking for...
Thanks - once more - for your assitance, Lee.

I have a special request to our German members.
Would one of you kindly translate into English the text of the decal that I am showing on top of this thread.
Danke schön !

So this grille would NOT be correct for an early'63, is this right? Olen

Hello Olen, you are right, this would be not correct for an early '63.
