Plz. help I.D. this vintage grill

I was told by the guy I got this from that it is probobly off of a tractor, but not positive. What do you think?

 

was gonna say 39 or 40 chevy 1/2 pickup or panel, but too many teeth....

 

If you are counting with those eyes in your avatar you might want to count by touch!

 

The centre section of an International. ??????

 

International, maybe, but if so, a '37/'39............my guess

>.>.........looks like a tractor grill of some sort

 

.........Looks like its off a 30's or early 40's Case tractor....I think its off a DC model?

 

Thanks for the input guys, keep the guesses comming, i'd really like to know more about this piece.

 

Any more idea?

 

I'd really like to know what this grill is from, leading ideal is an international, but the sides are not straight up & down, more of a slight angle. I'm not an expert on internationals, so I don't know if thier grills had straight sides or not.

 

late 30s GMC is my opinion...

up up up

still no positive ID, but lots of good ideas.....

 

Im quite sure its off a 38 Chevy. Either a truck or sedan.
Here is what it looks like

Let me know if you want to part with it, looks like I can use it for my truck.

I dont know, the thick bars seperating the groups of bars kind of kills the idea, but it MAY be what its from.

 

nope, not 38 chevy.

 

^ I clicked on the pic, and saw the full sized image. Yeah I too think its off a tractor. Its way too heavily built for any car/truck. Id almost be interested to see how much that thing weighs.

 

Looks like we agree that this is from a tractor, but which one? any ideas? leading idea is a case tractor, how about a year?

 

Looks like a 38 Olds to me.--TV

 

bumpin' it up.

 

Uhhh......sure looks like stamped sheet metal. How heavy can that be?

Since it hadn't yet been "identified" otherwise, I'm sticking with my earlier educated guess that it is '38/'39 International truck.

Nope....

 

31Dodger.........

Agreed! Dang.....thought I had a winner there....

it is stammped steel, and it is thick steel, for a small grill, it does have some weight to it. Leading idea is a case tractor, but not positive.

 

The grille doesn't taper, it is actually stepped on each side.
I think tractor of some kind is right.

 

Fergusun Tractor. Put it on your rat rod

 

Just saw one one ebay, seller claims it is 1937 Chrysler, but can only say he is going by a little tag on it. So I googled it, and sure enough, photos look just like my grill.
Mystery solved!!!
Thanks go out to everyone who thre Sow thier hat into the ring, had lots of good ideas here.

 

I have IDed this grill, it is 1937 Chrysler.

 

99% sure it's a '37 Chrysler, can anyone confirm?

 

check out this listing, about 5-6 down, looks like yours
