**Just picked up a 1934 Ford Pines Winterfront Grille and have some questions??**

here you go

 

both the grills are gennie ford, the painted 33 grill has the winters front attatched by a series of clamps.

you can see the difference between the 33 and 34 grill, the 34 has
a ''prouder nose" compared to the 33 along with a number of other
differences,the most notable being a gentle curve on the 33.

what you have is a 33 pines,a reasonably rare item
none the less.

It's definetly not a English Y model item.

hope this helps,thommo.

Cool Winterfront Mike, I saw it early on the Bay and p***ed. I guess I'm to infatuated with the stock grills.

Good Luck with it anyway!!!

 

Thank you so much! That answered my question! Iv got an idea with this that I am going to try make. Hope it turns on ok! Got to buy a 1933 grille now. Expensive!

 

It will be interesting to see it on the car - might give it an aero look.

Heck, if it doesn't look good - it'll come off easy enough!

 

It's actually going on my new 34 5 window I'm building! This car is going to be cool! Hopefully we will finish it in 2 months.

 

Cool. If the 5-window is half as cool as your 3-window or your '36 truck it will be a knock-out.

 

Yeah it's going to be really cool. The ch***is is set up how I wish I did my 3 window, the body is channeled just to the bottom of the frame rails, the wheel base is lengthened and the frame is pinched. And a cool *** 348 chevy for the power plant . 18" milk truck wheels as usual and lots of other cool stuff. Oh and its going to have a ton of louvers! Hopefully we can get it done soon!

 

common guys that grill is pretty darn original...its going to look great once you put a lot of hours to it...(a 32 version was on ebay going for $9000 and the reserve wasn't met!)

 

Don't forget the hood,the 33 grill won't match up with the 34 hood.
The hoods the expensive part.

 

hey mike
did ya get my text. i've had this one forever. it's pretty cherry.

 

Mike I have one just like yours, and it has little Z-brackets on the inside of the grill where you then attach it to the outside face of the 33 or 34 grill. I can try to get you some pictures to see what I'm talking about. I think I have some pictures of both grills I have on my page. That is if you haven't already figured out how to attach them, since I just ready the posting date of the last entry.....lol

 

Did they make a pines for the ‘34 grill?

 

I don't believe they did. I've never seen, or heard of, one.

I have a very nice original '33 Pines. That's original paint. I'll post a photo here.
