Interesting, but it doesn't do anything for me.

Besides, I've got REAL cobwebs in my '69 grill! I don't have to pay for retro after-market cobwebs. Mine came for free, so smoke that!

looks pretty cool. that is fairly new, that truck has been on the show circuit for a while now, and this is the first time i have seen that grille treatment on it.

I believe that truck belonged to a boardmember, 98L150. I think he said he had sold it last summer.

I actually found it quite enjoyable. The forward thinking that obviously went into the entertainment, as well as the execution of that grill is commendable.

I quite enjoy the "ouside of the box" thinking that an item like this showcases. I may not choose do do it personally, but it only help to massage the creative juices and may develop itself into another incarnation through later development. Therefore I encourage these sorts of modifications, as well as fabrication that further this hobbiest mentality into an actual artform.

Dude that rocks!

i would never do anything like that to a truck of mine, BUT that takes talent to make and i can respect that, plus its different, and thats all that matters

Isn't that what you're suppose to do with your old barbeque grills?
