Thanks for accepting my fakery. Just having some fun.
Today I put some grille bars in the radiator shell. Used 1/8" by 1/2" hot rolled flat stock with 3/8" spacing between bars.

Thanks fellas. It came out pretty good. Worked on the steering column today. Not finished so no pics of it. In place of a horn button the original aluminum bezel will be used, but on top of it will be this belt buckle housing two little scorpions. Something that's been in my junk drawer for years.

Here's Torchie's awesome custom.

Yes- very cool touch. I need to go back to all the rat holes and look for stuff like that that's been around forever and I forgot I had... :eek:
