Randy.
Long ago and far away in Europe, UK especially, flaps, blinds, mobile
louvers and cardboard behind the grill, were common on cars.
Fancier cars got more sophisticated devices, of course.
Rolls Royce had the vertical slats in the grill moved by a thermo-bulb in
the radiator header tank, for instance.
Saab 96's, and others, had a roller blind in front of the radiator,
controlled by a chain from the drivers seat.

I remember them on things like big Mack trucks but I don't think it is
something that has been done on pickup trucks.
