I like the 55 grille the best myself.. I like how a couple of you guys with 56s have modified a 55 grille to have the headlights recessed like the 56.
I'd like to do that.. and chrome it. MmmmMMmM

Oh, and nice work!

I also recessed the grill by 1 1/2 " so it sets in deeper. I will have to modify my dust shields when I go to mount head light buckets.
