    Yes I know its my car and I should do what I want.. and I will!
    I just want some suggestions from my fellow Hambers on some possible grille ideas for my Pontiac. I will be re-painting it soon.. so I want to decide soon.

    I have been running the 53 buick grille forever, and while I like it, I've never been satisfied with the way it fit. It didn't look sanitary enough for me up close.

    I've been thinking of some ideas along the lines of a 51 Ford car grille, 52 Plymouth grille, maybe a 53 Chevy grille. I'm not completely sure. I like the idea of a foating bar with a bullet-type piece on each end.

    My only request is that it's pre 55.

    I'd really appreciate your input and can provide different angles for anybody who would be kind enough to photoshop :D

    Ah I've always loved that car. arent those chrysler grille bars?

    I'm kinda set on a 51 Ford grille, similar to the sam barris merc, just cant seem to find a grille cheap enough.
