I think they look really cool, but almost no other SPF's have them.
I think that you will see more of the pusher fan set-ups on the "original" style builds. They look especially good when the radiator and fans are leaned back at the period correct angle. I have seen a decrease in their use lately as well, but I do think it is because individual style has been evolving. What may be very cool is someone developing a modern version of the fans. I love the 60 era pusher fans and if we ever build another period correct car we will use them again.
