That is fraud!!!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::D:D OK, kidding aside, you're going to switch the front end to the much better looking :D 68-72 style, so, why are you worried about making the grille look the way you like also???? Just do it!;) taz3 18th-October-2007, 08:12 PM Well as most of you probably know im changing my front end over to the 68-72 style.

I would only frown if you tried to pass it off as a real one for profit! We all seem to have our own opinion of what we like,and it's the excepted diversity that makes this site so good! fossilrunner 18th-October-2007, 08:14 PM yeah you guys are right. Im not goin for originallity so I guess Ill do what looks good to me. Man cant wait to get all this done The Big Al 18th-October-2007, 08:15 PM What's there to think about? Do it! Make some car perfectionist crazy! And if he says "Thats the wrong front end on that car!" Your answer " Yea, I took it off my grandfather BBC Nova after I hit a pole, my car has a better stereo so i just took the front end" And walk off! OOOOOOOOOOOO, :cool::cool::cool::awkward::awkward::cool::cool: AL supernovanator 18th-October-2007, 09:25 PM hmmm.... dont want to make that 73 look like something it isnt, 68-72 front end and all;):D:D 68SSGrandpa 19th-October-2007, 12:40 AM Take a peek at my Avitar, GM did make a 406, and only in 1968, with an original a 6 cylinder standard. I have the fender emblems to prove it. I have a lot of fun with them at car shows:D. So, if you want it to be an SS, let it be written, let it be done. davidr5610 19th-October-2007, 01:28 AM A picture says a thousand words. http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/12/web/2532000-2532999/2532222_22_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/12/web/2532000-2532999/2532222_57_full.jpg The Big Al 19th-October-2007, 01:32 AM that is a great illustration! SuperSport623 19th-October-2007, 09:28 AM i dont have the ss emblem, but i did paint my grille black ... it looks so much better, imo then it did before chevynuts88 19th-October-2007, 12:16 PM I vote black grille with the SS emblems. 2doorpost 19th-October-2007, 12:21 PM Bought a new non-SS Hatchback in March 74, drove it home from the dealer and cloned it an SS that night. No shame here. Go for it. davidr5610 19th-October-2007, 01:05 PM i dont have the ss emblem, but i did paint my grille black ... it looks so much better, imo then it did before In my opinion, if you don't have the SS emblem, leave the grill chrome. supernovanator 19th-October-2007, 02:45 PM hmm.... maybe people should try cloning new cars as an SS.... they are practically the same on the outside:rolleyes: DANNO 19th-October-2007, 07:12 PM In my opinion, if you don't have the SS emblem, leave the grill chrome. In my opinion, the black grill looks good with or without the SS. ;) 68chevyll 20th-October-2007, 12:11 PM Do whatever you like. It's your car. I say put em on.;) | |
