The Engine Temp Gauge with Radiator Shutters was also sold as an OPTION on the gas only models. I have one, a 1950, it set up exactly like the parts books shows, with the shutter control lever on the left outside of the Control box (Where the ameter is), Push the lever forward and it pulls a rod rearward thus opening the shutter. The rod run from the lever behind the carb and generator, where it makes a zig zag to get up under the grill housing. The heat temp gauge mount on a bracket in front of the coil and has a lead over to the Z pipe (collant entry point, where the radiator connects through a hose to the engine), OEM does have the whole set up to make yours have the gauge, but don't think they have the shutters, which are a fairly rare deal...
