    Did a test fit our my new corvette grill on my Hudson, should fit without too much hassle. The rebuild is coming along nicely, working on cars can be so much fun....:) especially when you try and put parts back on after paint that hadn't been off the car since it was made 57 years ago.

    Looking good Adam, I have always loved those grille's, it fits in that Hudson like it was made for it.

    Where else but ebay!!!

    I lucked on getting about 11 teeth from a guy off ebay and then bought 2 58 corvette grill bars and a couple of extra teeth, then cut the ends off one of the grill bars and welded them onto the other and there you have a 15 tooth corvette grill. I think the early corvettes came out with only 13 teeth and for me that was just not enough.

    That's going to look good when you get it done.
