    No pictures on this omputor but I had a 53 Chevy grill with extra teeth grafted to the stock park lamps on my first 54. Custom tube grill in my 2nd 54 and in a buddy's 52 which I ended up cutting up and fitting a narrowed 60 T-bird front bumper, then trimming down the original tube and putting it in the bird bumper. Came out pretty slick. Used a Corvair front bumper as a floating grill bar in my brother in law's 53 (really) and lastly, I picked up a 55 Plymouth grill to put in my last 52. Sold the car before I got it done, Plymouth grill been hanging on my wall now a few years looking for a home. I'll post up some pics when I get to the shop Monday.
    Even though there really was nothing wrong with the stock grills, 52/54 Fords seem to just beg for custom grills for some reason.
