    I was thinking along those lines, has anyone done anything with expanded or perforated steel?

    I got a Custom Grille on my '64...Chrome round stock...it's a '63 surround...I don't have pictures to post, I'm in AZ visiting family...I'll post some when I get back to OR...Or you might be able to see it in my avatar...

    I just bought me a new commuter car so I'm not going to be driving my Ole Folsom into the F**** ground anymore, 85+ miles a day at 9 mpg is hard on a 45 year truck, and the wallet...So...I've got some "Hardcore" plans for the truck and I might be selling my grille? Maybe...

    Not custom, but just different factory grills on my old '63 chevy.

    The first is the original '63 chevy. The second is '61 anodized aluminum chevy. The third is '60-'66 GMC. I liked the '61 chevy the best out of these three.




    ***EDITED TO ADD***
    I just realized the GMC grill had been photoshopped upside down.

    I think im going to try and get ahold of a 1960-61 grille, and save the imperial headlights for another venture. Must be double headlights though
