    Hand made. I made the base out of 16ga, it was beaten over a plywood form, I nicked the inspiration from here, I think it was choprods. The top is made out of 20ga. I hope you like it.

    No swastikas, they're in vogue now.

    Hey Aaron I wore your shirt to last week's gay pride parade, "Hot Rods from Uranus" got some funny looks.

    Now I'm off to take Bondo-slinging lessons.

    Exhaust pipe pieces from Discount Auto Parts, the place to get into arguments with hot tempered Latinas.

    The hardest part was beating the 16ga metal in the bends, shoulda gone with 20ga but I was thinking it wouldn't be strong enough. The trick is to leave the puckers in the steel and finish it smooth with a hammer and dolly.

    Oh here's the lid my pal Swiss Mike made for my bike's aircleaner, I know this ain't the JJ, but parts is parts.

    Good luck finding a Fordson grille in America! Anglias are fairly common over here. I did have a '34 grille in it, I didn't like it too much.
