I also wonder what he cut up for that grill. I've seen alot worse done as suitable substitutes.

Other than the grill bein a lil beat up, I think it looks pretty good. I really like the 71-72 grills. This one looks like a natural progression to chrome.

Yup it's a 73 or 74 Dodge grille.Doesn't look as bad as expandd metal,or chicken wire
 If he had a good grille it might have been a cool substitute.

hmm
doesnt look too bad in the pics, but I bet up close its a cobbled together POS. I think Dodge used that grille til 76 or so, but I could be wrong. Also, when it came on a Dodge it didnt have the bend in the middle.
