    Nice truck, That grill just has more style to it. But I do like both, just like the 32 better.

    Depends on the build.
     
  8. I believe a stock body Model A looks better with the original shell,,but there are exceptions to the rule. HRP

    What's involved to swap an A grille out for a deuce grille (on a hooded car)? Will the radiator need to be changed?

    I think rad needs to be 32 but other than that On Car on a A frame its a bolt on , if riding on duece frame you have to lower grill some. Correct me if Im wrong

    Tough call, both look good. I suppose it depends on the car and the individual building it.
     
  15. I used my model a walker rad and it fit tight over the rad but it only fits about half way. Made my own hood which is longer than the A. Headlight bar went through the grille shell thou.

    I like the deuce grille shell on an A.

    Funny thing is, you NEVER see an A grille on a deuce.
     
  20. I think that it depends on the build.

    I think that the stock grille looks great on a stocker, otherwise I'd go for the 32 shell.

    On a '28-'29 I like the Stock shell. On a '30-'31, Deuce shell. Just my biased opinion. ;)
