espo Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Great looking build. The grill seems to stand out a little more than it should. I like the paint treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an insert behind the grill that was likely part of some custom thing. I'll see if I can remove the grill, then the insert without damaging anything, then reinstall the grille. the thing on the left bottom is the culprit.

I like the paint treatment. Finally got around to removing the "insert" behind the grill to alleviate the "frogeye" look.

Greg Rogers Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I love the patina look, that was what I was going for on my 56. The front grille looks perfect now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
