The Garage Queen had, when I bought it, some 1"x2.5" holes (approx)
at the top of the fenderwells, leading to the engine compartment. They
looked like "period mods" and I left them there; I cannot say whether they
help cooling or not, and I don't see a way to do a "tuft test" to see if the
air goes in or out. :^)

Y'all might recall that a year or two back I got a 1/43rd Tiger from
a UK outfit called K&R Replicas; there's a picture of a finished car on the
Tiger website (under "Images") even though what I bought was a kit. I
_still_ haven't built it. More detail than the ENCO car from Uncle Wally,
but that means more work if you buy a kit instead of an assembled car.

Interesting. When I 1st heard about Painless Wiring right here on
the Tiger List, I checked out their site, and read there that PW will not
sell a fuse block separately, only as part of a wiring harness. I wonder if
that's changed...
