    Well its not as tough of a peak job as Kustombuilder did on Denises big Olds but I like it.

    The grill is a modified 50's Case tractor grill stretched and narrowed around a new 65 66 Mustang V8 radiator. By the way I got the radiator from Radiator.com for $99 delivered! It also fits nice in a 32 or Model A grill.

    Well heres the pictures tell me what you think: [​IMG]

    I like it too, it's different. Are you going to be running sides and a hood? Custom made or what??

    Your on your way to up and running for the HAMB Drags right? [​IMG]

    It will eventually have a custom hood and and possibly side but that will have to wait till this winter.

    Good job, looks great. Glad to see you didn't just "bolt on" the tractor grille.
