Ive never heard that term before

 

Well you obviously haven't been around old cars.

 

my old car doesnt have chrome wheels. So no i guess i havent been around old chrome wheels

 

This has nothing to do with wheels. It has to do with chrome period...

 

Well thats what i ment, but does it look like any of the chrome on my car is original????? So i dont know what happens to chrome after a few decades

 

I need to show you then.

 

Ok we'll just look at your car lol, jk

 

That is true.

 

Ok the first and second steps are almost complete for the new grille. I have already taken apart and sanded down the grille pieces. And I just sprayed them with Krylon Rust Protector paint. Tomorrow I am going to go get the red and black paint and finish it off by Saturday morning.

 

Ok here are some pics of the grille in progress.

 

That looks pretty dang good, I really wanted to go to that show this weekend, but we found another house that we're goin to go look at saturday morning

 

It looks good because of the camera. If you look at it in person you can see all of the damage that has been done to the metal. Up next red paint.

 

candy apple like you were talking about? and the whole grill is still blak right? should look good

 

I am going to try to get as close to my car color as possible. And the back grille is going to be painted a gloss black. Right now it is flat black.

 

That'll look pretty dang cool in your rear view mirror, i wanna get the offset grille emblem for mine.

 

That still is my plan. If this looks really good, then I will probably keep it. I would be the only stang around with that type grille.

 

yeah, would you paint the offset emblem red also if this one turns out looking good?

 

No. I would leave it the color it came

 

Ok I am going to say this. I want to thank KennyG for coming up with such a great way to make a grille look good. I can't take credit for coming up with this idea of painting the coral.

 

ill have to see it this afternoon, or have you put it back on yet?
