1947 olds grille?

Im thinking of using one on my car, but before i drop some change, can anybody give the measurements of one? Height, width of top and width of bottom..

Thanks!

 

54.3" (1380mm) wide (Outside tips lower bar) x 12.9" (330mm) tall (Bottom of lower bar to top of upper bar)

 

Thanks a lot man!

 

I like the grill without the little pieces in the middle

Before


After

 

You're right, that does make it look smoother!

I really want one of these grilles, and they seem to be almost the perfect size

 

'46-'47 had the blocks between the bars, '48's didn't.

 

Yep, exactly. Mines a '47 and I took mine out. Denny Leske from the Ionia Hot Rod Shop welded the holes in the pot metal pieces and Advanced Plating in Nashville then replated the grill for me. I couldn't be happier with the look. REALLY makes the front end flow.....nothing breaking up the lines. Worth the time, effort and money.

 

Anybody know how hard it would be to fit a 47 olds grill in a 48 chevy?

 

How well did it fit in your 46? I am thinking the same thing for my 48.

 

I like those bumper guards with the turn signals wish I found a set for my Chevy.

 

Is this an aftermarket front bumper?

 

Well, it definitely isn't the stock one! Don't know if it's aftermarket, though. Could be a custom made one. Maybe she will chime in and tell you where it came from.

 

My 48 has one

 

ironically i didnt like them when I did my car the first time around.. but.. they are in fact stock..
