    Btt. Just ran across this thread and can’t believe no one chimes in aside from the op. I seen a nice one in the thread kohler kustom shop projects photo dump thread. I’ve seen quite a few of those Edsel grills turned into a custom grill and think they look nice

    I didn't have a center grill section for my 37 Dodge so I made this one that I used with the factory (horizontal) grill sides.
