Help me identify this mystery grill

BLEH, that is some outstanding research on your part. I have loads of reference material, and couldn't find it. Way to go

 

Maybe it was the ones that were built in the forties. The pic I remember was of a car falling apart so bad even Rustynewyorker wouldn't sell it

 

Same Cab, different angle...

 

I now own 2 of these grilles. The guy who turned me on to mine had already bought one and I bought his. It still has the glass lense in the oval opening.

 

The Checker shots are from the Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI.
Very close to Kalamazoo, so they have a great Checker history there. Awesome place.

 

I have no idea what car it came off of but it’s definitely female.

 

maybe find a pickup cab and build a Rat Rod?

 

Those grills shell deserves a better fate than to be hung on a R** Rod.

 

you got dat right

 

that grill had got to be the coolest looking grill i've ever seen.. nice score..

 

I guess my sarcasm is too subtle sometimes . . .

Wow! Pretty classy looking body......especially for a cab!
