    Hey guys, this is but one of the many nice cars at VIVA this year. In particular there was this Pontiac Fastback. Would anyone have the identity of the bullets in the grill? 2016-04-15 011.JPG

    The top bar looks like 53 Olds. Then they loaded up on bullets off something that probably had two on the bumper or one in the grill.

    The bumper could be a rear bumper off of something. The way it wraps around.

    It all fits together nice, but I'm guessing the pieces came off at least three different cars.

    Could they be cut down 53 Chev? Not sure but that is what they look like.

    Not 53 Chevy. I'm thinking Desoto upside down.
