thinking about using this ´39 ford prefect grille on my project,but I really like the looks of an original shell/grille too. I´m about to start on the frame,and with this grille the front axle sits 5" furter ahead,it´s on a 116" wheelbase in the pic. this grille is also something like 6" inces narrower,so I need to decide before I make the frame. plan were to have the axle "suicide" even with the 32 grille. oh,and the prefect grille is a free forest find,a new 32 grille and shell is like 950$ over here
I say use the 32 truck grill. ...........hey you took quite a long ride just to pick it up. Hope you had a safe trip home. Good luck and have fun Paul
yeah,it´s about 3 hr drive,and the trip home was like almost 4 hrs,it started to snow just outside rakkestad,and went on about half way from the border to töcksfors,couldn´t drive over 60km/h.but it was worth it,I did get started on the frame saturday,if you´d shipped it instead,it would probably not been here yet.sold anything else of those parts? / Vince
look at the project thread on it here http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=142934 and I´d think it would scare more than just children,hehehehehehe.....
