My brother Ted created this '32 Ford Coupe in 1961. He wanted an aggressive look with a chopped top, leaded in wide rear fenders, narrow tires up front and big slicks in the back. The front end features a molded-in contemporary grille with quad headlights and a custom horizontal bar piece with “teeth”. The color is as close to candy apple red as could be found at the time. The engine under the custom hood is a Corvette with straight pipes running the full length of the car.
I remember this build taking place and some of the details that went into its design, but I cannot remember now what kit that front grille is from. And neither can AI determine it after many, many questions were asked about it.
So, for those of you who are knowledgeable about specific 50s and 60s cars and their grilles, please let us know what particular car that grille is from. Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks and thanks for looking…
