Re: 54 Chey Truck Painted Grill
There is no way I would paint the grill you have it now. That is probably one of the most perfect 54 Chevy truck chrome grills on the planet.
The truck is real close to perfect as it sits though. I'd have to say that in some ways it is too clean and simple and unless you know what you are looking at you don't see a lot of the details in it. In an indoor show judged by qualified judges with judging sheets it will score high but award pickers at Saturday car shows don't seem to notice it because it isn't gaudy or flashy.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
