Grill Swap

[Aubrey3]

Has anyone tried to swap a mid-50s grill and headlight setup onto a mid-60s front end?

I seem to recall seeing a slick with a '53-56 type grille somewhere in my travels?

Here's your pic. SO, who did the rendering? Nice work, like the bumper treatment as well (and it's already been done a number of times, but I LIKE it:)

What about the bumper has been done?

[jamesdfo]

Stock bumper has license plate recess in center, the rendering shows the bumper smooth end to end, plus no bumper bolts. Both these mods have been done by others previously, and do look good.
See build thread in link below for one example of the bumper mods...

wow! that build

The bumper does look better. I do like the 50's grills and particularly the 56' headlights. That rendering is basically what I would like to have. But I'm sure nobody makes that for a 60's front end.
