As for more teeth, just find another grill and remove them.

They are on ebay pretty often. Be prepared to buy the whole front, though...light buckets, bar, and the teeth. I've seen them go for $40, up to over $100. I've also seen just 2 teeth go, pretty high if I remember. Funny, when you realize some of the guys on the list, have bought whole trucks, for $50 in years past...

Thar's gold in them thar trucks!!

It's sad, what jealousy will drive a person to. They now have a 12-Step program for that...

Oh yeah, and rectangular driving lights...at the top of the grill...heck, even the license plates in the same location!

All kidding aside, they are ALL great! And your brown two-tone is one of the nicest I've ever seen, and yours is what convinced me to do mine two-tone. If I had "fallen into" a '48/'50 instead of the '51, I'd be knocking the "toothy grin". But, I would have kept looking for a '51. I drove one when I was first out of high school, for a service station I managed. Didn't have a working clutch, taught myself to drive that beast. Start the truck in granny, and if you had a light, you had to shift down to granny, which is hard enough WITH a clutch! I have never ground a gear, since. What a way to learn how to shift...
