I believe that the one I have here now is an OE 295/S one I'll get a picture of it later today & maybe I can get Matt to post it for me, as I haven't figure that out yet??? I'll look around I might even have a old 340/S one here, just so it isn't all ripped up???

Why didn't they have any logos. All it is is a rubber flap. I just don't get it.

PM regarding the flap material. I might be able to help you out.

Bob, when the 340/S was created, it was done in months if not weeks. It's an easy machine to pick apart from different aspects including fit and finish but it had only one job..................win the I-500. It was obvious that the tunnel would have to be "jacked up" so the need for a slightly longer flap along with a short build time was the reason for no identification I'd guess. There is nothing fancy about a 340/S flap and in fact it was made of a "belting type" material. Just my perspective. Don

Kenny,
If you are able to find the right material I would be interested in purchasing a reproduction flap.
Thanks for the help

Hey Kenny,
Good Luck on getting them done. If the right material can be found in rolls, then all you would need is a low cost steel rule die. Very cheap vs a mold! I always wanted to do those, but never got around to it. Trade you a reproduction tool box for a repop or two flap!
-Rainville
PS: Mr. Bob, the 340/s went from conception to running race sled in about 9 months flat, basically starting from the 295/s motor and track. Most everything else was new. The 76 Liquidator, Liquifire and Cyclones were really the finished product.
