my grill idea

well i know its hard to invision where im going with this but here are some starter pics, when complete it will be a cross between 67 mustang and 69 camero look i cut the center bar completly out welded in patches from other grill to get one smooth edge on top and bottom welded in 4 in wide plate to give it some depth and the bars i fabbed will make grill pocket and head light pocket the fenders will be cut out with the same 4 in lip welded in and i have a billet grill to cut down and put in the center im gonna run 5 3/4 head lights with frenched bezals to make them look like the floating in the pocked kinda like some 56 ford truck front ends look. i dont get alot of time to work on it but i will post up a final pic i think with the cowl hood the front is gonna look very muscular oh i also have a ss emblem off of a 70 chvelle for the center the grill will also be set back towards ther rear of the 4 in for that depth im after, im thinking im gonna have to modify my core support to clear the 4 in lip on the fenders..

Re: my grill idea

I think I followed you.Kind hard with not knowing where sentences start and finish.I`d have to see it,I guess.In my opinion(who cares,right?)you have a nice truck with the front end everybody wants to switch to and you want to hack yours up?I`m not big on changing the best looking body-style ever made.I`ve lived through a few customizing eras and find it all comes back to leave it be,keep it clean.

Re: my grill idea

I like them all,67-72.It`s like looking at a beauty queen and wanting to tweek her nose or something.Look at the audiance and tweek their noses first.
Hey,go for it.I,also,appreciate creativity.I don`t expect everyone to like my ideas.
