Tilt Front Clip

Did anybody make a tilt front end for their truck? Fiberglass or use the existing parts? Looking for parts or advice. Thanks in advance.

Don't know anybody who does, did see a newer F150 one time with a Lincoln front clip. Might try J. C. Whitney, don't remember seeing one there.

come to think of it the only tilt clips ive ever seen were an old 55 ford f100 "flipnose" and an old jag...i would think it would be difficult to use the existing stuff considering all the mounting points, and the weight would make it harder to open, fiberglass would be easy but expensive

USbody.com makes them. They are not cheap at $1799.

I've seen some one piece fibereglass clips.
Can't for the life of me remember where I saw them though...it was a few months back. I'll see if I can find the page and I'll post it if I do.
IIRC....they were not cheap either.
