I had some time on my hands, so I found my old grille in the "why am I keeping this pile". Used my body hammer and steel, alittle body filler and matching red paint and DaDaa! What do you guys think, new red or old stock chrome one?

Thanks TempestFugit, the other grille is in much better condition and fits better. The red grille, from 5 feet looks good (OK) but any closer you can see the all the dents and bents. I have been planning to do a repaint in the near future and will most likely have the grille painted then.

Jay I personaly like the chrome on these cars. Maybe instead of the blacked out areas those could be red? Or maybe just leave the 4 grill sections chrome? This is jmo as this is your car and you are free to do anything you want to it. Well unless you start talking a Chevy under the hood. Pat

68Prix, I too like the chrome on the front. I just think it is too much chrome. I really like the looks of the 61 Tempest front, I have even look into putting a 61 front clip on it. Not too worry about a chevy under the hood. What i would like to do is copy MT 62 SS/D Tempest (tri-power 4cly 3 speed) ran low 13's in 62.

Four of us lifted the body back on the chassis this weekend and I welded it on yesterday. It's starting to look like a car again.

Two racers I know have given up on the hydraulic and are making mechanical linkage. It's difficult to maintain the correct free-play in a hydraulic system.Shims in the throwout bearing have to be changed.
I have a simple and reliable mechanical system on my racecar.
