    Looking to Id my grille in my 1952 buick. Looks like a caddy but was told it was a 40's dodge. Any experts out there?

    Looks like a '49 Caddy to me, but I do like that stock grille in it.
    Put some bullets on those dagmars that would look killer. I'll see if I can down load a picture of my bro-in-laws '50 Buick and his bulleted dagmars.

    It's not a Caddy grille. It's a '50 Chrysler.

    Well the stock is going to stay. Not bad for a $100 grille on the local craigslist.

    The stock grill for sure.

    Nice sled man,

    a score for $100....did you have to refinish it? A real good score if not!!!

    No refinish just steel wool and elbow grease.

  21. Other grill looks Chrysler to me, not Caddy. I vote to keep the Buick grill. Otherwise, it looks like the Bombal with his teeth pulled. :D
