Thanks everyone, after I get it out in the sun (if it ever decides to quit raining) I'll take some better pictures.. 19..

Thanks guys... It keeps growing on me.. 19..

After I got my other old grill off I found it was cracked in two places on the top side.. Not to mention it had a broken outside tab as most do.. So I did better with the one I painted.. I forgot to take pictures of the before grill, but I've got some of the after, and I'm like'n it.. Not to...

Well I went to the local parts store yesterday and was looking at the "red, green, and silver" paint pens.. Picked up the red one and turned around to get ready to go to the counter to pay for it. Then right in front of me I saw exactly what I needed (the Halleluja Chorus sounded..AHhhhhhhh) It...

Well I put 2 coats on the grill and the light buckets.. I'm really lik'in the stealth look... (couldn't think of anything else to call it) I definitely think some color of pinstripe may be in order. I also have a pair of Amber LED strips I've been thinking about to run around the inside edge of...

Well put the first coat of Graphite on the grill.... I'm really starting to like it... Will post some pictures later after I mow grass..

Well everyone I 'm kinda like'n that thought of a little pinstripe in red around the turn signals.. I used some 1/8" plastic chrome molding for the openings on the hood scoop, then Lance (73ABODEE) suggested I try the same stuff around the rear tail light lenses, where everyone uses the silver...

I have a grill that desperately needs repainting. I'm thinking of painting the same color of my rims. Which currently is "graphite" made by Dupli-Color. The color looks (I think at least) awesome on my rims. And it would tie the front and sides together in looks.. I know this isn't for some of...

Still traveling.. And it's been frick'in cold here.. I sorta put'm on hold till the temps hit at least 45 or 50 deg.. I haven't given up yet..

I've been traveling the last 3 weeks.. Finally home for this week.. It may be a little longer than I anticipated, but I'm gonna get'em done one way or another..

Well I started in and cut up the right side. It's only a start, there is a lot of detail work I'm going to have to do.. But if I can get these to look good and find someone who can use them as a mold for fiberglass, might just work.. I'll continue on, just wanted to show you the ruff of the...

Well we figured out that the back window louvers were going to be harder to make than the side ones...or so we thought.. Just getting the side ones figured out has been a chore.. But we're trudging thru. I haven't had the time to cut the "F" body louvers yet, just got back from traveling. But as...

Okay I'm bumping this is their anyone who might have any answers? 19...

Knew that would get your attention.... LOL!! Actually I have a question. I have these 2 "F" body mirrors and I'm going to use them, however both were remote and I'm not going to put them back as remote, manual only. But my question is; does anyone have any pictures, illustrations of the...

Okay I'll lighten up on the comments, understand.... But I've got an idea and I think I can make it work.. (famous last words) Just have to figure out how get it to look right... Good Luck on your sale! 19..

Well since 73AbodEE is giving up, I am continuing on with this sabatical.. I finally got the "F" body louvers and I'am going to carve on them.. First picture is what they look like. The second picture is a template (in Paper) of the window laying on top of the louver.. Now I really would like to...

For anyone using "f" body louvers the only thing I have come up with is to cut out the window shape on the bottom side of the louver. Then I'm going to try to cut the leading top flat edge off shape and attach it to the cut out I already have cut. If I can dremel the edges to get it to fit, I...

Okay... I got the Louvers today, and I plan over the weekend to carve on one of them.. It looks as if I cut the bottom rail off, and the next one above then re-attach the bottom I'll have the height. If I re-shape the the rear and cut out the un-needed plastic in the middle I might be able to...

Dimming.... I don't think so... Fizzling... Nope.. We all are just digging in and trying to see who comes up with what works.. Look at it this way, if one of us can figure this out at a reasonable cost.. We all win! (at least for side louvers)...lol!

See....Even a Blind Squirrel finds a nut once in awhile! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There has to be away to get these done, without a tremendous amount of R & D expense and mold expense.. If all of us work on this together we might be able to find some places that might be in a slow mode from...

Okay... I'm not letting this die.. I have a set of louveres I bought that I haven't received yet. But when I get them I'm going to carve on them till I get the look I want.. Now we all have been talking about fiberglass, I had another Idea.. "Vacuum Forming". I know the basics of heating a...

1968FormulaS340 & 72 Dodge, very much appreciate the comments.. Thats why I threw this out. It was kinda an impulse buy when I got them,plus the price I couldn't walk form them and now I'm kinda in the middle.. So Thank You for your honesty.. 19..

I Thank You for your Kind Words, :prayer: "Oh Mistress of Metal, High Priestess of Powder Coat, Keeper of Colors, and Maker of Old Mopars Beautiful!".. er..uhh is that enough.. I probably could think of a few more... LOL! Anyways..(still laughing)... I finally have got a line on a set "F" body...

I'll try to mock one of them up this afternoon.. 19..

Okay... I'm posting this here in this thread because its for looks, not performance as it probably would have gone into exhaust. But Mods... if it needs to be moved please do so.. When I was at the mopar nats this year I picked up a set of exhaust tips that are stainless steel. The kick is they...
