I see from the Workshop Manual that the 400 and early 401 both used a shutter arrangement in front of the radiator. You could re-instate the shutter to keep the originality of the car.
(I have dug around in my spares and I have one - pm me if interested. It is rather nicely engineered, with a sprung loaded mechanism operating with brass slats).

Chris.
