Re: Best Patina Ever

clearly I am in love with the '54 Bull Nose, question for you experts, will that bulky grill bolt up / fit the other years 47-55? Not a big fan of the five bars.

Re: Best Patina Ever

It'll bolt up. Need the 54/55 fenders though. You can modify earlier fenders, but better off with the right ones.

Not for sure, but I'm thinking the upper radiator supprt is slightly different too.

Anyhow, if you want patina. You should've seen the 3800 I bought last year. It had moss growing on it. Wish I had taken some pictures of it.
