Customs Show me your Shoebox grilles.

Dodge grille is cool.

 

thats a bitchin grill man love the split bumper and headlights

 

Great ideas. Bump this up . Gotta be more.

 

x2 i was going to install a desoto grill, but after looking and looking i decided to keep the original.

 

One of my favorites.

 

Here is mine, soon to be on its way to canada.. I think I pulled it from a 50 roadmaster.

 

did this on my buddys car a few years ago

 

Wow! From the grave! My wife bought a '50 to replace the crushed '51. Good ideas here but I see a stock, restored Box sittin way down low with a 302/C4 combo.

 

I used a Canadian Meteor surround and a full size Merc grille bolted together in the middle. I had to use a Meteor hood filler on the louvered ford hood I got. Pat.

Nice hood ornament there

 

Real Radical!

 

if it aint broke dont fix it!

 

try again.

 

Agreed^^^^

 

I need this center one to find my way home sometimes, because it's twice as bright than the other two.

 

this is what they originally planed for the middle.

 

I'm bringing this thread up to speed again.
Anyone knows anything more about this cal custom chrome trim parts and do it exists more images of this grill setup? Really slick and nice! I like it

 

mrkling..this Looks Great!! Does the repor. 9 tooth (if in fact thats a repro.) fit into the '51 side pieces like that or does it have to be modified. I hate to buy one then find out it is too short or too long.
I'm doing my '51 like I wanted to in 1963, back then a real '54 Chevy grille cost about $20.00 at the junk yard + another $2.00 per tooth!
Great Thread...Keep it going, I'm watching

 

blue one with Buick grill at Billetproofv-other of my project '51 with 50 Plymouth grill mock up and have '54 Buick grill. unsure which will use.

 

Cool pic. Are those 14 inch wheels? Thanks.

 

Im stuck between Lowsquires and this one. They both look awesome. I'm no trainspotter. What is this one from?

 

Kiwiandy.... those are 54 chevrolet grille teeth!

 

This picture was taken in 1959 or 1960 ... my car in pits at Peoria (IL) drag strip. It's a '50, of course, with 51 top bar, 54 grille bar and 50 bar ends ... all as best I can recall at this late date!

 

I think I have a center piece somewhere...

 

Here's mine. Kind of same old thing only different. Started out to just change signal housings then went ahead and did it right.
The Wizzard

 

Damn, wrong button. Here's the photo's (I hope)

 

my old 50

 

I have the front and rear bars of a '55 chrysler new yorker, about the only thing I can use on it, but it was one of the 3 free cars we got from my boss. I was thinking of doing this to mine. I like the way it looks better than the vw bumper guard creation I have on there now

 

my favorite. your car slays.

 

Setting mine up right now with a cal custom delete upper mldg and a cal custom center off of something. Got it from epay. used the 51 hood but added to the front hood lines so they droop like the 49-50. I prefer the smaller opening of the 40-50
