    I want to do something with the Grill on my wagon, here are a couple pictures, the first one is the old paint, it is easier to see the grill in it, but I am kind of stumped on what to do for a grill, I was thinking drawer pulls maybe, or floating something in it...

    If you want, you can photoshop something in to it too...

    Thanks in advance!

  7. You could take that bar/badge off it. An earlier Buick (51-3) might work in there, but it's tough to improve on the stock one on these cars and with that pointed prow there's not a lot of easy swaps out there. 58 Buick might work, it's 2-piece so you can V it and it could be trimmed to fit. Little squares.
