Folks Of Interest Black Grill Shells

I'm looking for pictures of black grill shells against half or full hoods that are a different color. I've found a few on mostly 32 fords. Was this ever an original paint combination? Any make or model welcome

My old coupe project. HRP

 

PURPLE!

No, wait....... BLACK! Goes with everything, man.

 

Model A...

 

So guys this seems to be a ford thing? Agree?

 

Uh, yep.

 

The black painted steel commercial grill shell on my '31 coupe...

 

pick up grill...

 

I certainly like the look. Here's a Chevy that kind of has it. Keep the pics coming. Thanks

 

copper, nickel, chrome, stainless or black were what most pre32 cars used on all the cars, with any color.
i like the look of the contrast.

 

Came from the factory looking like this:

 

That's it , the contrast. With black frame, beam, grill shell and head lights. A plan is coming into focus.

 

Planning on doing a satin black shell on my 32 PU with a satin black frame and gloss black chassis parts and a satin cement green body.
