    hey guys,

    found a few 53/4/5 olds grills for sale--the bar with the light pods on the ends- and wanted to know if there is any difference between then. like width ect? is one way wider then another?

    thanx

    The 54 I know is different than the 55. The 54 is thicker and the pods stick out a little further than the center bar.

    thanx, any idea how these compare to a 55 ish newyorker grill size wise? i want to run this sort of grill in my uber budjet 53 project and so far the only pic i have of a car running a similar grill is possibly running the newyorker grill and i want to make sure the proportions are correct.

    suppose i could have asked for pix of 53-55 olds grills in 52-54 ford also

    Here is a 55 Olds grille on the back of my truck (upside down)

    The 54 doesn't lend itself as well for roll pan duty.
