With or without the different grille!

Would have been classier if a 51-52 grille was somehow wedged in there!!!!

A '59 Rambler grille would look OK, I think, that isn't what's in there.

As it is looks a little too much like Mater

Maybe it's the angle of the shot but I think it looked better in the ebay add than on the picture of the truck that was in the book. I'm now siding with old Henry Ford 's original grille.
