PetesPonies Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Yes, the distant view does help. I like it! So I'm trying to find someone with a garbage grille, that I can get about 12" from the middle. That would allow me to make the two patches I need and everything will match up. I've posted, today, on a couple sites to see if someone has a trashed grille. The way they rusted and such . .someone certainly does. Now can I find him???

I've also been thinking about the hood bulge :) So you can use the upper and lower pieces as well as the horizonal "row" to fill in? And what, pray tell, is your thought about the hood bulge?

I was just thinking an early Bronco style hood budge might be a nice addition as well. This is just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a pic of a bumpside hood with a bulge recently and thought it looked cool. Kind of like the Powerbulge hood of the '68/69 Super Bees. Nothing major, but saying "I've got something here....."
