1970 Valiant / Duster grill on 1965 barracuda

[ProStocker273]

What do you guys think? I had this idea and finally got a grill and with little trimming would fit nice. I'd have to modify the body line on the leading edge of the hood but I have a spare hood and would proabbly use a bumper that's flat across the top.

I cant believe how well it fit up.
My barracuda currently has stock outer grill peices with the center peice being a cut down one peice aluminum valiant grill.
Which I think looks much better than the stock painted one.

Whatever floats your boat. I'm not a fan. I'll give you points for creativity though.

That's exactly what I was thinking of using if I decided to follow through.

Currently my only concern is cutting up such a nice grill for one but also how it looks once it's set back more. The top of the grill being strait across where the hood dips back on each side of the center may be tricky to make look right. I think I could make it work and lool like it came that way. But still a concern.
