    That looks great . ... Is that an early Chevy bar?
     
  3. WELL actually i dont know what its from i know its not chevy

    it was sold as an oldsmobile, but i knew it wasnt that

    i think it might be chrysler imperial, lincoln maybe.... no idea

    That looks good man. Those Chrysler bars are less bulky than the Olds IMHO. Nice job.

    I'm sure you will, really like the fact that you've kept the contures of the stock grille surround.
