let's see some custom grilles and hoods
Anyone got any pics of their custom front ends (hoods, grilles, bumpers). I'm trying to decide how I want the front of my 67 gmc to look. So let's see those custom 4 eyes or bowties.

Re: let's see some custom grilles and hoods
I would be interested in what others have done. My buddy and I are thinking of doing something similar to the General Mayham grill on his 69 C20.

Re: let's see some custom grilles and hoods
There was a guy here that was building his in a similar style to a modern 69 camaro. It looked menacing.

Re: let's see some custom grilles and hoods
I'll play... may be a little more than you were lookin for. Grille and hood both hand made.

Re: let's see some custom grilles and hoods
This is what I'm thinking. I cross between mad max and zombie mobile. Something that will scare the prius in front of us.

Both are by far my favorite 69-70 trucks that I've seen
