    I gots lots of parts, could maybe put together a set or two, but they aren't "nice". Would need chroming on many of the parts.

    Let me know if he might be interested. Then I could take pics.

    Donnie, do they have to work or will dummies be ok. The reason I ask is Night Prowlers might have something that would work. Hope this helps.

    donnie,
    not an answre to your question, but are you still wanting to put a tube grille in the olds? i found an old one i believe may be a cal custom or something similar. the guy said it used to be in a '60 chevey with a single headlight set up. was gonna get it and cut it to fit the buick but i'm not sure i want to do that. price was really reasonable. let me know i may call the guy in the next day or two...ken....

    donnie,
    i think it was like 7 high and i think maybe 51 wide sounds right. it was on ebay last week and didn't with opening bid of $40 and i don't think he had a reserve either, i email the guy and he emailed me his number. i haven't called him yet. he said he thaught it was stainless of aluminum. if it's cal custom it should be stainless. it needed some polishin' but looked straight. i was gonna call him on it but couldn't decide if i liked the idea of switching to single headlight config. i'll try and call the guy in the next day or so if as i was thinking on getting it anyhow. if the price is that low. i really think i would have to shorten it lenght and height wise which is as much work as making another one from stainless. that and the tubes are round and i'm more set on square. if your still thinkin about building one i may have a hook up for 3/4 in stainless square tubing in the works guy is getting back to me on price. anyhow let me know if you think it might work and i'll put a fire under my**** to check it for ya. i know you had actually thaught about going single headlight possibly right?...ken....

    went back and found it in my computer heres a few and i correcteted my self above on the size and the middle tubes are and inch shorter to work around the headlight. looks like a cal custom piece to me but who knows..
