it's the little details that make one car stand out above the rest.

heaven forbid that my car should be seen in public with a misplaced kidney grill.

sooooo, i seek the collective knowledge-base of the FAQ to guide me to the proper orientation of my kidney grill. the shape difference is so subtle as to be almost imperceptible by my aging eyes.

Looks right side up, they are tapered toward the bottom. Should be a fairly even reveal of nose panel on the sides.

looks normal to me, but you've got just a little something there, just in the corner - yes, there - you got it

Your center grille reminds me of Edvard Munch's painting The Scream:

]

Love it!!!

i'm not one to typically name cars, but i think you've just christened my car "Screamer".

with its wind noise at speed, i think it fits.

i think this car will sport this kidney grill as long as i'm driving it...

now i have TADPOL and Screamer.

You need to give me this hoodtrim for my 68! -Ben

Sorry Ben - you should have tackled this guy at the Vintage. He was my "Transporter". Trim is slated for another '68.

Rule # 1: Never open the package!
