buds truck Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) Got this done on the H.A.M.B. I REALLY like the look of this. They are 54 thru 56 Dodge truck upper grilles (?). What do you guys think? Does anyone have a couple hanging around??? Edited July 18, 2012 by buds truck Quote
Desotodav Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 Looks a bit like the front of my 55 Desoto truck here in Oz... Desotodav Quote
B1B Keven Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 Ya, I know of a pair for sale. Looks good. I think this grille would look good too: Quote
buds truck Posted July 18, 2012 Author Report Posted July 18, 2012 Ya, I know of a pair for sale.Looks good. I think this grille would look good too: I have seen these, and they look good, but I am looking for something that looks like it was done 30 or 40 years ago. Like an old old custom. I will call that person with the grilles soon. thanks for the tip. Bud Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 I like it but those bars in good shape can be hard to find and at least some were painted rather than stainless/chrome. Quote

pflaming Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 That idea looks very good. I my opinion, that opening needs a strong horizontal grill and your is. I haven't solved my grill challenge yet. Quote
Dave72dt Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 It's a tossup between your photoshop and the vertical bars. I like both. I'm going with horizontal in mine. Maybe a couple of weeks I'll have something to kick around. Quote

1952B3b23 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 I really like the look of that. I built my own front grill for my '52 cause the original is missing. It came out well and looks pretty good. Quote
