    I am looking for the measurements of a 50 buick lower bumper and grill.

    Bumper = end to end

    Grill = tooth top to bottom and left to right

    I was playing with the idea of working a 50 buick grill into my 57 chevy wagon. Hold the groans of pain! I will do it if I can fab brackets to bolt it on and keep the stock bumper if I ever need it. I think that it could look pretty good.

    Also if ya know of a lead in Missouri anywhere on the west side from KC to Jolpin that I might be able to find one that would be great.

    See the purple rendition for the buick grill. The others are ideas that i am playing with for color and stance. And yes I will probably make skirts for it too.

    I know we have some 50 buick guys out there. Anyone willing to run out to their garage for a quick measurement?

    To some (like me) the 50 Buick grill is a THING OF BEAUTY :)

    That said, I wouldn't put it on another car. But, only because that would mean that a '50 Buick had given up its grill, and that would be a very sad thing.
