looking for grill ideas for a '51 Chevy Deluxe...
I have a '51 Chevy deluxe fastback, chopped 3-1/2", going for the lead sled look. I'm trying to get ideas for how I want to make the grill, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I kinda like that grill ,maybe save the outer chrome and fill the center with a more modern billit type,french the lights and shave the bumper and go with a rollpan ????? Or one of those skinny 70-71 camero bumpers molded to fit????

It's been done to death, but the early Corvette "toothy" grille still gets my favor.

I would just swap in a '52 center bar with the grille teeth... '51/'52's stand out the most out of all the '49-'52's. take too much away from them and they no longer stand out/ not recognizable.

Thanks for the quick responses, I am frenching four '59 caddy bullet tail lights in the back and was leaning towards having some kind of chrome bullets in the front. A bullet grill was the only way I could think to incorporate them and still keep a clean look.
